The role owns the upfront technical and operational review of deployment projects, ensuring requirements are complete, accurate, executable, and ready for field implementation.\nBy identifying design gaps, material issues, dependencies, risks, and omissions before work reaches the data hall, the PDE enables field engineers to remain focused on execution, vendor oversight, validation, testing, troubleshooting, and capacity delivery.\nThe successful candidate will combine deep low-voltage infrastructure knowledge, strong project-management capabilities, technical deployment experience, and effective vendor and stakeholder management.\n Deployment Execution\nServe as a central coordination point throughout the deployment lifecycle, from project intake through field handoff and capacity delivery.\nPartner closely with Data Center Build and Deployment Engineers, Technical Program Managers, Delivery teams, Automation teams, and all relevant other stakeholders to maintain alignment on scope, schedule, dependencies, and execution.\nAttend relevant project meetings and translate project-level decisions, changes, risks, and requirements into clear guidance for field engineering stakeholders.\nTrack milestones, deliverables, dependencies, risks, and blockers across multiple concurrent projects and data center build deployments.\nProactively identify schedule or execution risks and drive mitigation plans before impacting committed delivery dates.\nEscalate critical issues with a clear assessment of impact, identify resolution owners and recommended resolution.\nMaintain clear and timely communication regarding project status, risks, decisions, and changes.\nDesign Change Request Management and Validation\nReview Design Change Requests (DCRs) for technical and operational impact.\nCoordinate implementation of approved changes across engineering, vendors, program management, and field deployment teams.\nEvaluate time bound impacts of changes on materials, cut sheets, BOMs, schedules, resources, and capacity commitments.\nRe-establish execution plans and clearly articulate risks and impacts to schedule.\nEnsure revised requirements and documentation are accurately communicated to the teams responsible for implementation.\nVendor Management\nCoordinate closely with low-voltage vendors to ensure scope, schedules, technical requirements, and quality expectations are clearly understood.\nSupport RFQ, planning, readiness, and execution activities with vendor partners.\nConduct vendor project and business reviews to evaluate progress, risks, roadblocks, quality, and schedule performance.\nHold vendors accountable for contracted commitments and drive resolution of execution issues.\nPartner with field engineers to address technical and operational vendor challenges.\nIdentify recurring or systemic vendor issues and develop mechanisms to improve quality, predictability, and execution.\nCross-Functional Collaboration Could be removed\nCollaborate across Engineering, Delivery, Automation, Supply Chain, Program Management, Operations, and vendor organizations to enable seamless capacity delivery.\nProvide Technical Program Managers with clear visibility into deployment readiness, progress, dependencies, and risks.\nTranslate program and design requirements into actionable execution guidance for field teams and vendors.\nBuild trusted relationships across stakeholder groups and ensure concerns and requirements are identified early.\nFacilitate alignment when competing priorities, dependencies, or technical constraints affect delivery.\nProcess & Continuous Improvement\nDevelop scalable, repeatable processes and mechanisms that improve deployment quality, speed, and predictability.\nIdentify recurring deployment defects and address root causes rather than relying on repeated tactical workarounds.\nRecommend and implement improvements to planning, technical validation, vendor management, project handoff, and deployment workflows.\nPartner with Automation and Program Management teams to identify opportunities to reduce manual effort and improve data and documentation quality.\nDocument best practices, lessons learned, and standardized deployment processes.\nEvaluate the effectiveness of process improvements and their impact on engineering teams, vendors, stakeholders, and delivery performance.\n Disclaimer:Certain U.S. based or U.S. customer or client-facing roles may be required to comply with applicable requirements, such as immunization/occupational health mandates, and/or drug testing requirements.\nRange and benefit information provided in this posting are specific to the stated locations only\nUS: Hiring Range in USD from: $102,300 to $209,500 per annum.
