The Company
NorthMark Compute & Cloud (NMC²) is backed by dedicated leadership and investment, with a clear mission as it operates at the bleeding edge of technology. Its goal is to scale and enhance the high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud infrastructure that supports its clients' research, production, and delivery, enabling breakthroughs that shape the industries of tomorrow. Its engineers build critical infrastructure to eliminate friction in scientific research, simulations, analysis, and decision-making, accelerating discovery and driving faster innovation.
The Position
We are seeking an experienced, technically credible Infrastructure Delivery Program Manager to own end-to-end delivery of one of NMC²'s flagship HPC Center sites — a multi-year, multi-phase program spanning several buildings and representing $500M+ in capital investment. NMC² operates multiple HPC sites; the SVP, HPC Infrastructure Programs holds portfolio-level oversight across all of them, while this role owns full delivery accountability for a single flagship site. This is a senior leadership role owning the program management discipline for the full lifecycle of the site — translating executive strategy into structured, well-governed delivery, and holding a team of HPC Project Managers accountable for cost, schedule, and quality outcomes across every phase and building.
You will report to the SVP, HPC Infrastructure Programs, acting as their operating partner for program execution and governance on this site, while building and leading a team of HPC Project Managers who each own a phase, building, or major workstream within the flagship program. This role sits at the intersection of technical delivery, vendor and construction coordination, and executive reporting — you should be equally comfortable in a schedule risk review and a board update. Given the scale and duration of the program, you will also be the primary point of continuity and institutional knowledge for the buildout across its multi-year lifecycle.
Responsibilities
Own end-to-end delivery of NMC²'s flagship HPC Center buildout — from planning and design through commissioning and ramp — across all phases and buildings of the program.
Build, manage, and develop a team of HPC Project Managers, each owning a phase, building, or major workstream: assign scope, coach on technical delivery rigor, and hold the team accountable to cost, schedule, and quality commitments.
Establish and enforce program management standards, methodology, and tooling across the buildout (RAID logs, dependency tracking, change control, stage-gate reviews), ensuring consistency across phases delivered over multiple years.
Coordinate with utility, permitting, and municipal stakeholders as needed to keep site development on schedule at this scale.
Serve as the primary program governance partner to the SVP, HPC Infrastructure Programs, translating executive priorities into structured program plans, milestones, and reporting cadences.
Drive cross-functional coordination across engineering, data center operations, supply chain/procurement, construction and facilities, and finance to identify and de-risk delivery timelines.
Own program-level risk management: identify critical-path risks and technical/vendor dependencies across phases, escalate blockers early, and drive root-cause resolution.
Build and maintain executive dashboards and KPI reporting that give real-time visibility into capacity, schedule, cost, and quality across every phase and building of the program.
Manage day-to-day site-level vendor and subcontractor relationships (colocation, local trades, specialty installers), holding them accountable to delivery commitments; partner with the SVP and central procurement on major hardware/GPU supply and general contractor agreements negotiated at the portfolio level, ensuring this site's needs are represented in those negotiations.
Coordinate with peer site VPs and the SVP on shared portfolio constraints —…
