Technical Program Manager (Global Expansion, Network infrastructure)

Join our team as a Technical Program Manager focused on global expansion and network infrastructure. In this senior individual contributor role, you will manage programs, processes, and accountability across a rapidly scaling organization. Your core focus will be on the network backbone and long-haul fiber connectivity that is essential for each new site.

This role requires a strong background in technical program management, network infrastructure, and telecommunications.

Responsibilities

• You will own the sequencing of connectivity workstreams, drive cross-functional accountability, and manage deliverables against schedule and quality requirements.
• Gérer les programmes, les processus et la responsabilité au sein d'une organisation en pleine expansion, en mettant l'accent sur l'infrastructure réseau et la connectivité en fibre optique.
• Assurer la séquence des travaux de connectivité en fonction de la préparation du site, en veillant à ce que les jalons de la fibre, du transport et de l'interconnexion soient atteints avant la mise en service de l'alimentation et du calcul.
• Maintenir un suivi des interdépendances et des conflits de ressources, en assurant la responsabilité interfonctionnelle et en suivant les engagements pris lors des examens du programme.
• 5+ years in technical program management, program operations, or strategic analytics within data center, network infrastructure, telecommunications, or capital-intensive sectors

Requirements

• Proven ability to lead cross-functional teams, influence without direct authority, and drive consensus in a fast-paced environment
• Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills

Solid understanding of hardware development lifecycles

• Comfortable managing external vendors and partners to schedule, quality, and contractual commitments — carriers, dark fiber providers, construction contractors, or equivalent
• Working knowledge of network backbone and fiber infrastructure — long-haul and metro fiber, dark fiber and IRU structures, DWDM/optical transport, interconnection and colocation cross-connects, route diversity, and the mechanics of a fiber build (permitting, ROW, construction, splicing, OTDR acceptance testing, turn-up)
• Proficiency in program management tools (e.g., Jira, Confluence, Sheet)

Master's degree in Engineering or an MBA

• 10+ years of experience in technical program management within the hardware industry, with a strong focus on Networking hardware technologies
• Experience with networking switch designs for both Infiniband and high speed Ethernet
• Direct experience delivering fiber or network backbone programs: metro/long-haul builds, subsea cable systems or landing stations, carrier capacity procurement, or large-scale interconnection deployments
• Familiarity with hyperscale or cloud network architectures — DCI, backbone/WAN capacity planning, peering and transit strategy, and how connectivity requirements are derived from compute deployment plans
• Experience navigating international telecom permitting, licensing, and regulatory regimes, and coordinating with in-country carriers and construction partners

Preferred

• Experience working with international manufacturing partners and supply chains
• Familiarity with industry standards and regulatory compliance for hardware products
