Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. Our novel wafer-scale architecture provides the AI compute power of dozens of GPUs on a single chip, with the programming simplicity of a single device. This approach allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds and empowers machine learning users to effortlessly run large-scale ML applications, without the hassle of managing hundreds of GPUs or TPUs.   Cerebras' current customers include top model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.  Thanks to the groundbreaking wafer-scale architecture, Cerebras Inference offers the fastest Generative AI inference solution in the world, over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services. This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation. The Role The DC Delivery E2E TPM is the single-threaded owner for delivering data center capacity from forecast → site strategy → design → construction → infrastructure readiness → go-live. You will operate as the SSOT (Single Source of Truth) for delivery milestones, risks, and capacity outcomes while orchestrating cross-functional execution across internal teams and external partners. This is a frontier-scale role where ambiguity is high, timelines are compressed, and stakes are critical to company growth. RESPONSIBILITIES END-TO-END CAPACITY DELIVERY * Own delivery of AI-optimized data center capacity (colo, build-to-suit, retrofits, and owned facilities) from pre-contract planning through operational readiness. * Deliver MW-scale infrastructure aligned to aggressive GPU/AI system deployment targets. * Drive clarity from ambiguity—translate high-level demand signals into executable delivery programs. PROGRAM STRUCTURING & EXECUTION * Decompose complex build programs into workstreams with clear owners, milestones, and deliverables. * Build integrated plans spanning real estate, power/energy, design, procurement, construction, and deployment. * Establish critical path visibility and aggressively manage schedule compression. CROSS-FUNCTIONAL LEADERSHIP * Orchestrate execution across: * Real estate & site selection * Power & energy strategy (utilities, PPAs, interconnects) * Data center design (MEP, liquid cooling, high-density racks) * Supply chain & long-lead equipment procurement * Construction & commissioning * Infrastructure deployment (rack/cluster install) * Networking & backbone connectivity * Security, compliance, and operations readiness * Act as the primary interface with colocation providers, EPCs, utilities, and key vendors. RISK, COST & GOVERNANCE * Identify and drive resolution of critical risks, constraints, and blockers across power, equipment, permitting, and supply chain. * Own and maintain program budgets, CapEx forecasts, and capital allocation narratives. * Provide structured updates and escalation paths to executive leadership. DEMAND & CAPACITY PLANNING INTEGRATION * Partner with capacity planning, AI infrastructure, and finance teams to translate model demand into site-level capacity strategies. * Align build plans with power availability, network topology, and hardware rollout schedules. * Continuously optimize for time-to-capacity and cost-per-MW / cost-per-GPU deployed. OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE * Drive E2E improvements in delivery through: * Standardization of build and commissioning processes * Implementation of program tooling and dashboards * Post-mortems and lessons learned loops * Establish scalable mechanisms to support rapid global expansion. COMMUNICATION & LEADERSHIP * Serve as SSOT for program health, milestones, and risks. * Deliver concise, high-signal updates to senior executives. * Operate effectively across distributed teams with up to 50% travel. SKILLS & QUALIFICATIONS * 12-15+ years in mission-critical facilities or data center operations * Experience managing multi-site, vendor-heavy environments * Strong expertise in electrical and mechanical systems * Proven track record in improving uptime and performance PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS  * Experience at hyperscalers (Google, Meta, Microsoft) or neo-cloud / AI infra companies (CoreWeave, Lambda, etc.). * Familiarity with high-density AI workloads (liquid cooling, >30kW racks, GPU clusters). * Experience with: * Utility engagement and power delivery constraints * Long-lead supply chain planning (transformers, switchgear, chillers) * Commissioning and data center handover processes * Ability to operate in high-growth, ambiguous environments with limited structure. * Strong executive presence and ability to influence without authority. WHAT SETS YOU APART  * Extreme ownership mindset — you treat capacity delivery as a personal SLA. * Ability to move fast without breaking systems, balancing urgency with rigor. * Comfort operating at the intersection of hardware, real estate, and software scaling demands. * Clear, structured communicator who can turn chaos into executable plans. * Bias for action with a track record of delivering results under pressure.
