Project Execution & Delivery · Manage and track multiple hyperscale projects simultaneously, holding internal teams and external vendors accountable to schedules, budgets, and deliverables. · Identify risks, gaps, and design conflicts early, actively driving effective technical and commercial solutions. · Develop, maintain, and govern telecom design standards, specifications, and best practices across the global portfolio. · Review, coordinate, and formally approve telecom drawing markups and design packages (utilizing Bluebeam, Visio, and CAD tools). · Lead telecom infrastructure audits and long-term capacity planning initiatives. · Coordinate seamlessly with cross-functional executive teams including IT, network engineering, construction, and facilities. Requirements What You Bring To The Role · A Bachelor’s degree in Telecommunications, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience). · A minimum of ten (10) years of progressive experience in telecommunications or network infrastructure engineering, including direct personnel and team management experience. · A minimum of five (5) years of mission-critical or hyperscale data center experience. · Demonstrated experience leading multi-region or global telecom deployments and managing distributed regional staff. · Executive presence with the ability to lead technical meetings, negotiate with external design partners, and enforce strict project governance. · Highly organized with strong project management, documentation, and budget tracking skills. · Strong proficiency in engineering review software (Bluebeam, Microsoft Visio, CAD). · Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, global environment. Our Ideal Candidate Will Also Possess · Experience working on international projects across the US, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC. · Deep familiarity with data center telecom infrastructure, structured cabling systems, fiber routing, and carrier interconnection strategies. · Strong knowledge of relevant industry standards including TIA-942, BICSI, IEEE, and regional codes. · Professional certifications such as BICSI RCDD, PMP (Project Management Professional), and CCNP are strongly preferred.
