We are building a full-stack AI cloud platform that supports developers and enterprises from data and model training through to production deployment, without the cost and complexity of building large in-house AI/ML infrastructure.\nBuilt by engineers, for engineers. From large-scale GPU orchestration to inference optimization, we own the hard problems across compute, storage, networking and applied AI.\nListed on Nasdaq (NBIS) and headquartered in Amsterdam, we have a global footprint with R&D hubs across Europe, the UK, North America and Israel. Our team of 1,500+ includes hundreds of engineers with deep expertise across hardware, software and AI R&D.\nThe role\nNebius is building and deploying large-scale AI infrastructure across multiple data centers. Our Hardware Deployment Engineering team is responsible for the technical bring-up, validation, troubleshooting and handover of new GPU, compute and storage infrastructure.\nWe are looking for a Hardware Deployment Engineering Team Lead to manage and develop the Deployment Engineering team across EMEA. This is a hands-on technical leadership role that combines people management, capacity planning, project coordination and infrastructure engineering.\nYou will lead engineers working across new data center launches and expansion projects. You will also serve as the primary point of contact between Deployment Engineering, project management, Data Center Operations and other engineering teams & will report to the Head of Hardware Delivery and Deployment.\nThis position is based at our headquarters in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Remote work is not available for this role. Regular travel to data centers across EMEA will be required\nYour responsibilities will include: \nLead the Deployment Engineering team\nManage a team of Deployment Engineers across EMEA.\nHold regular 1:1s, provide feedback, set expectations, and support engineers in their development.\nAssign responsibilities and make sure engineers have clear ownership during deployments.\nIdentify skill gaps and build technical depth within the team.\nSupport hiring, onboarding, and performance management as the team grows.\nRemove blockers for engineers and escalate organizational or technical issues when necessary.\nOwn deployment engineering planning\nRepresent Deployment Engineering in project planning and synchronization meetings for new data center launches.\nUnderstand upcoming deployment milestones and translate them into engineering resource requirements.\nPlan engineer allocation across multiple parallel projects and deployment phases.\nMake sure the right technical expertise is available for hardware bring-up, testing, troubleshooting, and acceptance.\nIdentify resource conflicts and delivery risks early rather than reacting to them during deployment.\nMaintain a clear view of team capacity, project priorities, travel requirements, and upcoming workload.\nDrive technical execution\nEnsure deployment testing and hardware bring-up are executed consistently and to the required quality level.\nSupport engineers with complex hardware, firmware, Linux, and systems troubleshooting.\nStep into critical technical issues when deeper investigation or coordination is required.\nDrive problems toward a clearly identified failure domain, root cause, or actionable escalation.\nCoordinate with R&D, DC Operations, vendors, ODMs, and other engineering teams when issues cross organizational boundaries.\nMake sure deployment findings result in fixes, documentation, tooling, or process improvements rather than remaining one-off solutions.\nImprove how we deploy infrastructure\nBuild repeatable deployment processes, standards, checklists, and troubleshooting practices.\nImprove the quality and predictability of hardware testing and acceptance.\nIdentify recurring deployment problems and drive systemic fixes upstream into factory, hardware, firmware, tooling, or operational processes.\nImprove handover from Deployment Engineering to steady-state operations.\nHelp develop automation and tooling that reduce manual work and increase deployment scale.\nWe expect you to have: \nStrong experience with server hardware, data center infrastructure, or large-scale systems deployment.\nExperience leading engineers, either as a formal people manager or as a strong technical/team lead with clear ownership for other engineers.\nAbility to plan resources and coordinate engineering work across several projects running in parallel.\nStrong ownership mindset and the ability to operate in environments where procedures are incomplete and problems are not yet well understood.\nAbility to challenge assumptions, investigate beyond the immediate symptom, and drive issues to resolution.\nStrong communication skills and the ability to work effectively with project managers, engineering teams, operations, and external vendors.\nComfortable working directly in data centers and traveling across EMEA when required.\nIt will be an added bonus if you have: \nLinux troubleshooting skills and a solid understanding of modern server architecture.\nExperience diagnosing hardware and infrastructure problems across components such as CPU, memory, NVMe, PCIe, NICs, BMC, BIOS, and firmware.\nExperience deploying GPU or AI infrastructure at scale.\nExperience with large server fleets or hyper-scale environments.\nExperience working with ODMs or server vendors during production, deployment, or failure investigation.\nExperience with automated hardware validation or fleet-level testing.\nExperience building a deployment, infrastructure, SRE, hardware reliability, or similar engineering team.\nWhat success looks like\nYou will not be measured by how many individual servers you personally troubleshoot or deploy.\nSuccess means that Deployment Engineering operates as a reliable function: projects know when and how to engage the team, engineers are assigned to the right work, technical problems are driven to resolution, deployment risks are visible early, engineers are developing, and new infrastructure can move from delivery to operational readiness predictably.\nYou will be the person the Head of Hardware Delivery and Deployment can rely on to run the EMEA Deployment Engineering function day to day, while also continuously improving how the team operates and scales.\nBenefits & Perks:\nCompetitive compensation\nCareer growth and learning opportunities\nFlexibility and ownership\nCollaborative and innovative culture\nOpportunity to work on impactful AI projects\nInternational environment and talented teams\nWhat's it like to work at Nebius:\nFast moving -
