For two decades, NVIDIA has pioneered visual computing, the art and science of computer graphics. With our invention of the GPU - the engine of modern visual computing - the field has expanded to encompass personal computer games, movie production, product design, medical diagnosis and scientific research. Today, visual computing is becoming increasingly central to how people harmonize with technology, and there has never been a more exciting time to join our excellent team. NVIDIA is now passionate about innovation at the intersection of visual processing, high performance computing, and artificial intelligence.

Our data centers, and the thousands of servers installed in them, are the foundation upon which our creative products and services are delivered. As we bring new large-scale AI data center builds online, we are looking for a highly motivated Deployment Manager to own the labor, logistics, and resources required to physically bootstrap our DSX builds, from equipment receipt to rack-ready hand-off. Deep and broad knowledge of large-scale data center deployments in a distributed, multi-vendor environment is a strength you’ll need.

What you will be doing:

• Build and lead a world-class deployment team made up of internal technicians and vendor labor. The team is responsible for receiving, staging, rack placement, and power and network connection at scale.
• Establish NVIDIA’s deployment approach for phased DSX builds. Anticipate labor, loading dock, storage, and scheduling constraints before they occur and implement solutions to address them.
• Work with Data Center Operations, engineering, receiving, production owner, and vendor partners to establish a clear deployment and hand-off model through to the pre-cluster stage.
• Develop staffing plans, metrics, dashboards, KPIs, and reporting tools to measure deployment throughput and develop strategies for continuous optimization.
• Establish strong business relationships with internal and external partners, including general contractors and vendors. Break down functional silos to foster a transparent and collaborative business unit.
• Facilitate key meetings and other communication instruments to align executive and senior leadership on deployment status, build schedules, and key cross-functional dependencies.
• Identify, track, and prioritize key schedule, labor, and supply risks. Develop mitigation strategies to counter risks.
• Establish repeatable processes and runbooks, including decommissioning and site restoration, so lessons from early builds scale to future DSX sites.

What we need to see:

• Positive, high-energy attitude
• BS, BA, or BEng degree in technical field (or equivalent experience). Master’s degree preferred
• 10+ overall years of relevant experience across data center deployment, construction, operations, hardware, and networking, including people management
• 4+ years leading distributed and diverse teams, including contractor and vendor labor
• Tolerance for ambiguity, flexibility, and a willingness to implement ideas from others
• Ability to lead complex, cross-functional programs through shifting priorities and compressed schedules
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, along with quantitative, organizational, and analytical skills
• Ability to share concise conclusions, and then provide supporting analysis as needed
• Enjoys finding solutions to problems by being passionate, creative and tech savvy

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

• A demonstrated drive to get things done in a fast-paced technology environment and attention to detail with superb interpersonal skills and the ability to effectively manage multiple priorities.
• Deep understanding of data center power, air and liquid cooling, network, and cabling infrastructure, ideally with experience deploying high-density GPU racks at scale.
• Experience with NetBox, CMMS, SNOW, Inventory Management, and project scheduling tools.
• You’re a self-starter with a mindset for growth, continuous learning, and constantly looking to improve the team.
• Self-motivated, high EQ, can work with anyone from SVP to field engineer to contractor, along with a positive attitude, strategic outlook, and strong powers of persuasion and negotiation.
