The Role
Cerebras is seeking a Senior Data Center Construction Manager to manage the execution of white-space fit-out projects across colocation (colo) environments and maintain the overall construction schedules for assigned data center builds. Reporting to the Director of Data Center Construction, this role is responsible for rapidly deploying high-performance AI infrastructure within third-party data centers while ensuring speed, quality, safety, and cost discipline. You will manage the day-to-day delivery of assigned data center construction projects, working closely with colo providers, contractors, vendors, and internal engineering teams to bring capacity online quickly and reliably. This hands-on project leadership role requires strong ownership, disciplined follow-through, sound judgment, and a bias for action.
Responsibilities
- Manage the end-to-end delivery of assigned data center construction projects from planning through commissioning and turnover.
- Lead all aspects of data hall buildout, including racks, containment, power distribution, cooling integration, and network readiness.
- Act as the day-to-day site interface with colo providers to align on base-build readiness, SLAs, schedule milestones, and integration points.
- Drive vendors, general contractors, and trade partners to execute fit-out scope on aggressive timelines.
- Implement and maintain Cerebras construction standards, playbooks, and repeatable deployment processes for colo-based builds.
- Ensure seamless coordination between base-building and tenant-improvement scopes.
- Manage cost, schedule, quality, and safety across assigned projects and workstreams.
- Develop, maintain, and challenge detailed construction schedules, including critical-path activities, dependencies, resource requirements, and recovery plans.
- Identify risks early, develop mitigation strategies, and escalate material issues to the Director with clear recommendations.
- Lead site-level execution teams and maintain a strong on-the-ground presence as required.
- Partner with procurement and supply chain to track and support the timely delivery of long-lead equipment.
