About the role
Role focused on program management for a multi-GW portfolio of third-party leased and powered shell data center sites, from LOI through construction handoff to operations, within Fluidstack’s frontier-scale infrastructure for AI compute.
Responsibilities
- Own the program management operating rhythm across a multi-GW portfolio of third-party leased and powered shell data center sites, from LOI through construction handoff to operations.
- Architect and maintain the stage-gate framework that tracks each site from site negotiation through utility lock, lease execution, and BoP construction, ensuring every milestone is visible and every dependency is owned.
- Build and run the tooling, trackers, and data pipelines that give leadership real-time visibility into schedule, cost, risk, and design changes across 20+ concurrent projects and multiple campuses.
- Coordinate directly with third-party developers, internal construction, utilities, legal, and finance to surface blockers early and keep deal-to-power timelines under six months.
- Hand off signed sites to delivery and operations teams with complete documentation, no dropped terms, and no surprises after mobilization.
Qualifications
- You've personally built and run the program management infrastructure for a large, concurrent portfolio of capital projects where the stakes were real and the margin for error was small.
- You've designed stage-gate or milestone frameworks from scratch and enforced them across teams that didn't report to you.
- You track 20+ workstreams without losing detail, and the people around you rely on your read of the schedule before they rely on their own.
- You've coordinated across legal, finance, construction, and external counterparties on deals or projects where the dependencies were messy and the timeline was fixed.
- You write and speak with enough precision that a senior stakeholder can make a decision off your update without needing a follow-up.
- Deal discipline, documentation, and process hygiene are habits you hold even when the pace is high and the pressure is to move fast.
- Bonus: Data center development, powered shell, or build-to-suit project experience. Utility coordination and power delivery timelines. Construction program management at campus scale. Familiarity with BoP scope and construction handoff processes.
