Role Scope- - Build the global spares sourcing program for critical datacenter equipment such as chillers, CDUs, switchgear, generators, and pumps across a fleet scaling to tens of gigawatts.
- - Qualify and dual-source spare parts suppliers across every critical equipment category, tying min and max stocking levels and reorder points to failure rates and equipment criticality tiers.
- - Negotiate spares pricing, lead-time commitments, and consignment or vendor-managed inventory terms that keep replacement parts on site before a failure takes a hall offline.
- - Set the spares stocking strategy across sites and regional depots so a single critical failure never idles live compute waiting on a part.
- - Partner with reliability and site operations to forecast spares demand from the maintenance schedule and installed base, and keep the parts catalog ahead of every new equipment generation.
What We're Looking For- **The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.**
- - You've built or run a spare parts or MRO sourcing program for capital equipment where downtime carried a real cost, and you set the stocking levels yourself.
- - You've qualified and dual-sourced suppliers across multiple equipment categories, and you've pulled a second source online fast when a primary vendor slipped.
- - You've negotiated consignment, vendor-managed inventory, or stocking agreements that put critical parts on site ahead of demand rather than after a failure.
- - You've tied spares inventory decisions to failure data, criticality tiers, and lead times, not to gut feel or blanket safety stock.
- - You've worked directly with reliability and maintenance teams to forecast parts demand off an installed base and a maintenance schedule.
- - You keep clean records of parts, suppliers, pricing, and lead times, and you don't lose a critical spare in a spreadsheet.
- - **Bonus:** Datacenter or mission-critical facility equipment such as chillers, CDUs, switchgear, and generators. Global supplier networks across multiple regions. ERP or inventory systems such as NetSuite, SAP, or Oracle. Mechanical or electrical spares for high-availability infrastructure.
We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
