Gestor de projetos técnicos II

About the Role

The Technical Project Manager II will own the schedule, scope, and coordination of Torus site builds, from design freeze through procurement, construction, commissioning, and handoff to operations. Our sites are built from repeatable units and scale to hundreds of nodes, so the work is as much about sequencing vendors, lead times, and dependencies as it is about any single task.

This is a hands-on role for someone who is technical enough to understand what a delayed optic, an unconfirmed carrier handoff, or an unbalanced PDU branch does to a go-live date, and is organized enough to keep many parallel workstreams moving. You will work daily with network, compute, and systems engineers, facilities and electrical contractors, carriers, and equipment vendors, and you will be the person who knows what is blocked, why, and what happens next.

Who You Are

You work comfortably between technical depth and cross-functional pace, whether you're in a design review, a change-window call, or a vendor escalation.

• You see the whole system. You know how a delayed optics shipment or a firmware hold ripples into site turn-up, security review, and handoff to operations, and you use data to plan around it.
• You lead with the answer. You turn complex technical discussions into a clear answer, an owner, and a deadline. Your status updates, runbooks, and stand-ups keep people aligned without adding process.
• You earn trust across teams. Network, compute, systems, security, and facilities engineers know you'll ask about their constraints before asking them to move faster.
• You hold speed and quality together. You push for urgency and still insist on testing, validation, and rollback plans before anything goes into production.
• You let the customer break the tie. Your customers are the sites, operators, and internal teams who depend on your uptime. When trade-offs get hard, you make the call with them in mind and help the team do the same.
• You stay steady in ambiguity. Fast scale-up means incomplete information. You define a path forward anyway, share progress and setbacks directly, and meet blockers and incidents with realism and confidence in the team.

Responsibilities

Program planning and delivery

• Own the integrated plan for each site build: scope, milestones, dependencies, critical path, and go-live criteria
• Break each site into repeatable workstreams (network core, compute, power, cooling, fiber and cabling, security, telemetry) and track them against the plan
• Run weekly cross-functional status meetings, maintain a single source of truth for schedule and risks, and produce clear status reports for leadership
• Identify schedule risks early, propose mitigations, and escalate decisions that need an owner
• Maintain a repeatable build playbook so that each new Pod or System is faster than the last

Procurement and supply chain

• Work with engineering and procurement to turn designs into bills of materials, review vendor quotes for completeness (optics, cabling, licenses, support), and track open quote gaps to closure
• Track orders, lead times, shipments, and receiving across multiple vendors, and flag long-lead items (switches, firewalls, optics, power and cooling equipment) at the start of each build
• Coordinate RMAs, substitutions, and re-quotes without losing the schedule
• Maintain an accurate inventory and delivery status for each site, including what is owned, ordered, and still missing

Site, power, and facilities coordination

• Coordinate electrical, mechanical, and cooling work with facilities teams and contractors, including power feeds, PDUs, cooling distribution, and rack and cabinet readiness
• Schedule and run change windows, power-on events, and cutovers, with rollback plans and clear communication
• Track site readiness gates before equipment ships and before nodes are powered on
• Manage on-site logistics for installation crews and technicians, including access, safety requirements, and sequencing

Carriers, ISPs, and external vendors

• Manage circuit orders and turn-up with carriers, including demarc and handoff details, optics, BGP and IP-space requests, and install dates
• Track address-space and registry applications that have long lead times
• Manage vendor and contractor statements of work, deliverables, and acceptance
• Be the single point of contact for external parties on schedule and dependencies

Commissioning and handoff

• Define and track commissioning and acceptance criteria with engineering for each site
• Drive punch lists to closure and confirm that documentation, runbooks, labeling, and as-built records are delivered before handoff
• Coordinate the handoff of nodes and sites to operations and to customers or hosting partners, including credential, access, and onboarding checklists

Risk, change, and communication

• Maintain a risk and issue register for each site, ranked by impact on availability and schedule
• Apply change control to scope, schedule, and design changes, and communicate downstream impacts to cost, schedule, and other sites
• Track budget against plan for each build and flag variances early
• Document lessons learned after each build and feed them back into the playbook

Required Experience

• 5+ years of project management work
• 3-5 years of experience managing technical projects in data center, network, infrastructure, or construction environments
• Demonstrated experience delivering projects with multiple vendors, long-lead procurement, and fixed go-live dates
• Working technical fluency in networking and compute fundamentals (switches, firewalls, servers, optics and cabling, power and cooling) sufficient to challenge estimates and understand dependencies
• Experience building and maintaining project plans, risk registers, and status reporting using standard tools (for example, Jira, Smartsheet, MS Project, or similar)
• Experience reviewing vendor quotes, bills of materials, and statements of work
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work with engineers, executives, and external vendors
• Ability to prioritize across many concurrent workstreams and make clear decisions with incomplete information
• Comfort with change control and checklist-driven procedures
• Willingness to travel within Utah, with occasional travel to remote sites

Preferred Experience

• Experience on GPU or high-density compute deployments, or data center build-outs
• Familiarity with liquid cooling, high-density power distribution, or colocation and facility coordination
• Experience managing carrier circuit turn-ups and ISP or IP-address requests
• Familiarity with OT/ICS or energy infrastructure environments
• Experience with infrastructure automation or a technical background in systems or network engineering
• Experience with budget tracking and cost reporting on capital projects
• Project management certification (PMP, PRINCE2, or similar)
• Experience with Jira or similar tools, including building dashboards from live data
