Description

  • Partner with Product and Engineering to turn infrastructure strategy into multi-quarter programs with clear scope, sequencing, dependencies, governance, and outcomes.
  • Lead capacity planning by connecting product demand, infrastructure supply, growth assumptions, and technical constraints into a durable planning cadence.
  • Own budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis for infrastructure governance programs and explain movement versus plan.
  • Develop financial and cost models, along with scenario-planning frameworks, to inform trade-offs across capacity, cost, reliability, performance, and speed.
  • Build transparency mechanisms for infrastructure and AI investment, including ownership, allocation, utilization, forecast, actuals, and decision points.
  • Establish governance for AI token utilization and allocation, including demand forecasting, usage tracking, and financial visibility.
  • Operationalize recurring review mechanisms for budgets, forecasts, anomalies, optimization follow-through, and decision-making with cross-functional partners.
  • Lead trade-off discussions and executive-ready recommendations by synthesizing technical, business, and financial signals.
  • Run portfolio reviews, dependency management, roadmap health reviews, planning checkpoints, and executive updates for cross-functional programs.
  • Identify and automate high-toil workflows using AI-assisted tools, dashboards, scenario tools, and workflow automation.
  • Use GenAI as a default operating model for program execution, including first drafts, signal synthesis, risk surfacing, and action/decision capture.
  • Prototype data-driven or workflow-simplifying solutions using AI coding assistants and internal tooling.
  • Follow AI governance and safety-by-design guidance by handling sensitive data appropriately, validating AI outputs, and documenting assumptions and limits.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of technical leadership experience owning large, ambiguous, cross-functional programs with senior stakeholder visibility.
  • Strong experience in infrastructure, platform, cloud economics, or a related environment where capacity, cost, and performance must be managed together.
  • Proven ability to translate strategy into executable programs, roadmaps, governance mechanisms, planning cadences, and measurable outcomes.
  • Demonstrated strength in capacity planning, budgeting, forecasting, and variance planning in complex environments.
  • Strong financial modeling and cost modeling skills with the ability to pressure-test assumptions and support prioritization decisions.
  • Experience building transparency mechanisms for infrastructure or AI spend, allocation, utilization, and investment decisions.
  • Strong technical breadth and judgment to partner effectively with engineering teams and facilitate technical trade-offs without relying on coding depth.
  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration and executive communication skills, with the ability to influence without direct authority.
  • Experience building durable mechanisms such as governance processes, dashboards, review cadences, and decision frameworks.
  • Workflow design, AI fluency, and data/insights orientation, including prompting, vibe coding lightweight tools, dashboards, and data analysis.
  • Safety-by-design AI fluency, including risk assessment, data handling, output validation, auditability, and knowing when AI use is not appropriate.
  • Preferred: FinOps and investment transparency experience for infrastructure or AI spend, including allocation, forecasting, reporting, and optimization.
  • Preferred: Experience influencing directors, VPs, or executive leadership with clear, concise trade-off recommendations.
  • Preferred: Experience creating best practices, tools, methodologies, dashboards, and governance reviews that scale across teams.
  • Preferred: Deep domain expertise in infrastructure, cloud, or AI platforms.
  • Preferred: Experience mentoring other program managers or cross-functional partners and scaling impact through others.
  • This role is not eligible for relocation assistance.
  • This role requires in-office collaboration 1-2 times every 6 months and can be situated anywhere in the U.S.

Benefits

  • Base salary range of $145,747 to $300,067 USD for U.S.-based applicants.
