The opportunity
OpenAI is building the infrastructure foundation for the next generation of AI. The Data Center Engineering team defines the strategy, reference architectures, technical requirements, and delivery standards for the large-scale data centers that support OpenAI research, products, and infrastructure partners.
What you'll do
Translate assigned infrastructure goals into clear workstream charters,: scopes, milestones, owners, decision points, success metrics, resourcing assumptions, and execution plans.
Build and maintain integrated execution plans for assigned programs: covering network, controls, data hall design, whitespace deployment, commissioning preparation, and deployment readiness.
Support coordination across network, controls, structural, electrical,: mechanical, hardware integration, construction, commissioning, and operations teams.
Work with third-party design teams to define design milestones from concept: through detailed design, including basis-of-design development, requirements tracking, design reviews, technical comment resolution, change management, and release readiness.
Maintain the dependency map, issue log, risk register, action tracker, and: decision log for assigned network and data hall workstreams.
Coordinate design and review milestones for network rooms, non-production: network services, OT / IT interface points, rack deployment assumptions, telemetry interfaces, controls dependencies, and data hall deployment packages.
What they're looking for
- Track building-level network and support-space interfaces such as MPOE, MMR,: Network Core, WAN, support rooms, and associated handoff points where they affect assigned programs.
- Support the network and controls DRIs by organizing reviews, resolving: cross-discipline gaps, surfacing decisions, and keeping partner deliverables aligned to schedule.
- Manage partner and vendor deliverables such as submittals, interface: packages, installation assumptions, turn-up plans, readiness evidence, field issue logs, and corrective action tracking.
- Drive readiness tracking for assigned 1P, 3P, colo, and selected CSP: programs, including bring-up sequencing, installation readiness, access dependencies, maintenance windows, and first-use criteria.
