[Hiring] Infrastructure Delivery Program Manager @NorthMark Strategies

Role Description

We are seeking an experienced, technically credible Infrastructure Delivery Program Manager to own end-to-end delivery of one of NMC²'s flagship HPC Center sites — a multi-year, multi-phase program spanning several buildings and representing $500M+ in capital investment.

• Own end-to-end delivery of NMC²'s flagship HPC Center buildout — from planning and design through commissioning and ramp — across all phases and buildings of the program.
• Build, manage, and develop a team of HPC Project Managers, each owning a phase, building, or major workstream: assign scope, coach on technical delivery rigor, and hold the team accountable to cost, schedule, and quality commitments.
• Establish and enforce program management standards, methodology, and tooling across the buildout (RAID logs, dependency tracking, change control, stage-gate reviews), ensuring consistency across phases delivered over multiple years.
• Coordinate with utility, permitting, and municipal stakeholders as needed to keep site development on schedule at this scale.
• Serve as the primary program governance partner to the SVP, HPC Infrastructure Programs, translating executive priorities into structured program plans, milestones, and reporting cadences.
• Drive cross-functional coordination across engineering, data center operations, supply chain/procurement, construction and facilities, and finance to identify and de-risk delivery timelines.
• Own program-level risk management: identify critical-path risks and technical/vendor dependencies across phases, escalate blockers early, and drive root-cause resolution.
• Build and maintain executive dashboards and KPI reporting that give real-time visibility into capacity, schedule, cost, and quality across every phase and building of the program.
• Manage day-to-day site-level vendor and subcontractor relationships (colocation, local trades, specialty installers), holding them accountable to delivery commitments.
• Coordinate with peer site VPs and the SVP on shared portfolio constraints — hardware/GPU allocation, skilled labor and talent availability, and centrally-negotiated vendor capacity.
• Partner with engineering and finance on capacity planning and forecasting to align infrastructure delivery timelines with commercial commitments and client SLAs.
• Prepare program status materials for executive leadership, board meetings, and investor updates when infrastructure delivery is on the agenda.
• Lead post-mortems and continuous improvement processes to raise program management maturity across the organization.
• Support scaling of the program management function: hiring, onboarding, and career development for HPC Project Managers.
• Partner with the Strategy & Operations function (or equivalent) to feed program-level data — cost, schedule, capacity, risk — into executive reporting, annual planning, and board materials.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Business, or a related field; PMP, PgMP, or equivalent program management certification a strong plus.
• 12-15+ years of experience in technical program or project management, ideally within data center, HPC, cloud infrastructure, or large-scale capital infrastructure delivery.
• Proven track record owning a large-scale, multi-year, multi-phase capital infrastructure program end-to-end ($250M+ capex).
• Experience managing and developing a team of project or program managers.
• Deep fluency in program management methodology: critical path analysis, risk and dependency management, resource and capacity planning, stage-gate governance.
• Comfortable operating at both a strategic level (executive and board reporting) and a tactical level (schedule detail, vendor management, technical risk).
• Experience managing vendor and contractor relationships tied to infrastructure delivery.
• Strong executive communication skills, with experience presenting program status directly to C-suite or board audiences.
• Direct experience with hyperscale infrastructure, GPU/HPC compute buildouts, or comparable large-scale facility development.
• Bonus: experience coordinating with utilities, permitting authorities, or municipal stakeholders on large capital projects.
• Bonus: experience in a PE-backed or high-growth scale-up environment.

• Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future.
