Additionally, you will be instrumental in building and refining capacity forecasting models that utilize AI and Machine Learning (ML) techniques, as well as designing analytics tools to predict resource demand across diverse infrastructure environments. This includes proactively identifying capacity-related issues, leading experiments to determine scaling and utilization parameters for different service tiers, and incorporating multi-dimensional metrics into the models. The role requires close collaboration with hardware, capacity, infrastructure, platform engineering, and cloud analytics teams to develop comprehensive capacity roadmaps and deliver actionable insights for a variety of cloud capacity engineering initiatives, with a strong emphasis on supporting both traditional and hybrid cloud strategies. What you get to do in this role: Design, implement, and deploy AI/ML-driven capacity forecasting models for long-range demand and supply planning. Convert demand forecasts into actionable server and rack requirements. Enhance forecasting accuracy by incorporating multi-dimensional metrics and hybrid cloud strategies. Run forecast scenarios to optimize scaling and utilization across service tiers. Collaborate with hardware, infrastructure, and cloud analytics teams to develop capacity roadmaps. Track and report forecast variability, presenting insights to leadership. Apply advanced techniques (ARIMA, RNN, LSTM, NOW AI) to improve predictive models. Build analytics tools to identify bottlenecks and proactively address capacity issues. Qualifications To be successful in this role you have: Experience in leveraging or critically thinking about how to integrate AI into work processes, decision-making, or problem-solving.
