  • Develop a comprehensive Hardware Lifecycle Management strategy, covering procurement forecasting, operationalization, and decommissioning of legacy systems (G3/G4/G5).
  • Provide architecture and designs during the project intake process, reviewing and guiding teams on the right architecture for all demands.
  • Enforce strict Security Standards for Data Center HW Provisioning, ensuring all infrastructure meets SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance objectives.
Required Skills & Experience:

We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
  • 5+ years of experience in Data Center projects in an enterprise environment.
  • Deep expertise in Hardware and Infrastructure Mastery:
    • Deep knowledge of Cisco HW, NVIDIA GPU architectures (H100, B200, RTX 6000 Pro), and high-speed interconnects (RoCE v2, InfiniBand).
    • Extensive experience with Data Center infrastructure.
    • Proficiency with asset management and automation tools (Netbox, ServiceNow, Terraform, or OpenTofu).
    • Experience in Data Center lifecycle management, HW capacity planning, decommissioning, and building complex financial showback models.
  • Proven expertise in Kubernetes (NKP preferred) and NVIDIA AI Enterprise stacks (GPU Operator, DCGM, Triton, vLLM).
  • Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and manage your own time effectively to meet project goals.
  • Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team.
