Technical Program Manager, Infrastructure Data Centers

About this role

Meta is seeking a Technical Program Manager to lead complex, large-scale infrastructure data center programs that underpin Meta's global compute and network capacity. In this role, you will drive end-to-end program delivery across the full data center lifecycle — from site selection and design through construction, commissioning, and operational readiness — partnering with engineering, real estate, construction, and operations teams to bring critical infrastructure online at scale. You will define program strategy, resolve ambiguous cross-functional dependencies, and establish frameworks that improve how Meta plans and executes its data center portfolio worldwide.

Responsibilities

Define and own the end-to-end program strategy for large-scale data center infrastructure projects, spanning site development, civil and structural construction, mechanical and electrical systems, and commissioning milestones Drive alignment across engineering, real estate, construction management, network infrastructure, and operations teams to ensure integrated program execution and on-time capacity delivery Develop and maintain master program schedules, critical path analyses, and risk registers for multi-site data center portfolios with interdependent workstreams Establish governance frameworks, reporting cadences, and escalation paths that provide leadership with accurate visibility into program health, schedule risk, and capital expenditure status Lead resolution of complex cross-functional blockers — including permitting, utility coordination, equipment procurement, and contractor performance — by driving structured problem-solving and decision-making processes Partner with capacity planning and infrastructure engineering teams to translate long-range compute and network demand forecasts into actionable data center delivery roadmaps Identify systemic gaps in program delivery processes and design scalable solutions that improve execution quality and speed across the data center program management organization Represent program status, risks, and strategic recommendations to executive stakeholders through structured written and verbal communication, including program reviews and investment decision forums Mentor other program managers on technical data center program management practices, tooling, and cross-functional coordination methodologies Drive post-project retrospectives and lessons-learned processes to continuously improve delivery frameworks across the infrastructure data center portfolio

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in a directly related field, or equivalent practical experience 12+ years of experience in technical program management, with direct ownership of large-scale data center, critical infrastructure, or hyperscale facility programs Experience managing full data center lifecycle programs including site development, design coordination, construction execution, and operational commissioning Experience developing and maintaining integrated master schedules, critical path analyses, and risk management frameworks for multi-workstream infrastructure programs Experience driving cross-functional alignment across engineering, construction, real estate, procurement, and operations organizations on capital-intensive infrastructure programs Experience communicating program strategy, risk, and investment decisions to executive and cross-functional leadership through structured written deliverables and program reviews

Preferred Qualifications

Familiarity with data center capacity planning processes and translating compute or network demand signals into infrastructure delivery roadmaps Demonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements) Demonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologies Background in construction management, facilities engineering, or civil and structural project delivery in a technology infrastructure context Experience managing data center programs at hyperscale, including coordination of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, power infrastructure, and network deployment workstreams Experience building or scaling program management operating models, tooling, or governance frameworks across a portfolio of infrastructure programs Experience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)
