Job Description

The Principal Data Center Facilities Development Manager serves as a senior leader responsible for the planning, design, development, and commissioning of state-of-the-art data center facilities. This role oversees complex projects from concept through execution, ensuring alignment with business objectives, regulatory standards, and global best practices in safety, security, and sustainability.

Responsibilities

As the Principal Data Center Facilities Development Manager, you will lead the end-to-end development of new data center facilities, from site selection through design, construction, commissioning, and project closeout. You will manage multidisciplinary project teams—including internal staff, external consultants, and contractors—while developing project scopes, budgets, timelines, and quality standards. A core aspect of this role involves monitoring performance to ensure projects are delivered on schedule and within budget, all while maintaining high standards for quality and compliance. You’ll coordinate closely with cross-functional partners such as IT infrastructure, security, compliance, legal, and real estate teams to ensure alignment with business objectives. Ensuring data center facilities comply with applicable codes, regulations, industry standards, and corporate policies—particularly in safety, environmental impact, and data security—is essential. You will also drive the integration of energy-efficient and sustainable practices into facility design and operations. Additionally, you will develop and maintain risk management and contingency strategies, oversee vendor management and contract negotiations, and manage procurement for facility-related services and equipment. Mentoring junior team members and providing project updates, detailed reports, and executive presentations are also key aspects of this senior leadership role.
