Full Job Posting

Responsibilities

  • Own horizontal functional slices across multiple layers of the infrastructure stack from hardware and kernel/runtime up through cluster scheduling, capacity control planes, and customer workloads. Grasp system-level trade-offs (such as compute utilization vs. memory headroom and reliability), surface hidden technical collisions early, and deliver risk assessments.
  • Operate in an environment where static multi-year roadmaps have given way to rapid priority shifts and urgent escalations. Establish disciplined intake gates, work-in-progress limits, and decision lock-in so programs don't stall.
  • Replace repetitive status-reading meetings and manual toil with a single live source of truth, AI-assisted workflows, and concise decision artifacts that busy engineers and leads can review and approve rapidly.
  • Replace reactive escalations with structured cross-organization partner intake, rigorous OKR/QBR cadences, and measurable infrastructure outcomes across compute efficiency, capacity yield, hardware launch velocity, and production reliability.

Minimum qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in a technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5 years of experience in program management.
  • Experience with systems or technical infrastructure.
  • Experience as an engineer (e.g., Site Reliability Engineer or Software Engineer, etc.).

Preferred qualifications:

  • 5 years of experience managing cross-functional or cross-team projects.
  • Experience owning end-to-end functional slices of infrastructure stack across distributed cluster management, cloud infrastructure, operating systems/virtualization, networking, and hardware/software platform launches through legacy decommissioning.
  • Experience consolidating fragmented tracking silos into a single automated/AI-assisted source of truth.
  • Experience connecting dots across organizational boundaries, closing unowned integration seams, and structuring customer intake and OKR/QBR cadences.
  • Thrives in ambiguity and ability to ramp rapidly on unfamiliar domains, understand multi-layer system trade-offs, query telemetry/SQL directly, and surface technical risks early with engineering leads.
