Hybrid (New York, NY / Sunnyvale, CA / Bellevue, WA)$182k - $242kFull-timePosted 1mo ago
About the role
Senior individual contributor TPM focused on the network backbone and long-haul fiber connectivity for CoreWeave’s global expansion, aligning site readiness with fiber, transport, and interconnect milestones across domestic and international markets.
Responsibilities
- Own and continuously maintain the master interdependency tracker linking the international pipeline to the domestic development pipeline — surface resource conflicts, sequencing risks, and capacity constraints in real time to program leadership.
- Drive cross-functional accountability across Legal, Finance, Engineering, and Operations: track commitments made in program reviews, follow up on open action items, escalate blockers proactively, and ensure teams are moving at the pace the program requires.
- Own the end-to-end program plan for network backbone and fiber connectivity at each new market and site — from route planning and carrier/dark fiber selection through contracting, construction, splicing, acceptance testing, and lit service turn-up — and hold the critical path against data center RFS dates.
- Manage carrier, dark fiber provider, subsea consortium, and construction partner deliverables against schedule, quality, and diversity requirements: route diversity and physical path separation, latency budgets, capacity commitments, SLAs, and IRU/lease terms.
- Partner with Legal, Finance, and Sourcing to move agreements through negotiation and execution on the program timeline.
- Ensure all active opportunities and programs progress through required intake, review, and approval gates on schedule — flag deviations, at-risk milestones, and sequencing conflicts before they become delays.
- Maintain a connectivity view of the portfolio: fiber route inventory, contracted vs. lit capacity, diversity posture, interconnection footprint, and per-site connectivity readiness.
- Engage substantively in technical discussions with network engineering and architecture teams — challenge assumptions on route design, capacity planning, and turn-up sequencing, and contribute to problem-solving.
- Build and continuously improve the systems that make this function scalable: intake workflows, tracking templates, milestone frameworks, and reporting cadences.
Qualifications
- 5+ years in technical program management, program operations, or strategic analytics within data center, network infrastructure, telecommunications, or capital-intensive sectors.
- Working knowledge of network backbone and fiber infrastructure — long-haul and metro fiber, dark fiber and IRU structures, DWDM/optical transport, interconnection and colocation cross-connects, route diversity, and the mechanics of a fiber build (permitting, ROW, construction, splicing, OTDR acceptance testing, turn-up).
- Comfortable managing external vendors and partners to schedule, quality, and contractual commitments — carriers, dark fiber providers, construction contractors, or equivalent.
- Solid understanding of hardware development lifecycles.
- Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams, influence without direct authority, and drive consensus in a fast-paced environment.
- Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills.
- Proficiency in program management tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence, Sheet).
