Position overview

This role will be based in Denver, CO

The Senior Principal Product Manager, Global is a company-level product leader responsible for defining and advancing Vantage's most critical global infrastructure platforms as a cohesive, integrated portfolio.

This role operates beyond individual platform ownership, shaping how products work together as a system, influencing enterprise investment, and aligning Vantage's roadmap with long-term shifts in technology (chips, density), energy, and customer deployment models.

This role functions as a Product Senior Individual Contributor, setting direction at the enterprise level without formal organization ownership.

What You Own

1) Portfolio-Level Product Strategy

• Define a multi-year product portfolio strategy across major platforms (e.g., FLEX, FORGE, APEX)

• Shape how platforms interoperate as a system (not standalone solutions)

• Align product direction with:

• AI infrastructure evolution (accelerators, density)

• Energy constraints and availability

• Global deployment models

2) Enterprise Decision Frameworks

• Establish company-wide product governance models, including:

• Standards vs. variants strategy

• Lifecycle and release frameworks

• Technology readiness and adoption thresholds

• Enable repeatable, scalable decision-making across regions and teams

3) Capital & Investment Alignment

• Act as product authority in capital planning

• Influence where and how Vantage invests (product, region, capability) and tradeoffs across cost, lifecycle value, and risk

4) Cross-Platform System Integration

• Ensure alignment across core systems:

• Power architecture evolution

• Cooling strategies (air to liquid transitions)

• Modularization / DfMA approaches

• Drive system optimization vs. local optimization

5) Market & Customer Leadership

• Engage directly with hyperscale customers and partners to:

• Anticipate future requirements

• Co-develop next-generation deployment strategies

• Represent Vantage in defining the future of AI infrastructure

6) Regional Product Enablement and Feedback Integration

• Drive alignment between global product intent and regional execution, reducing drift and enabling scalable deployment consistency

• Establish and operate closed-loop feedback mechanisms to capture insights from deployment, commissioning and operations, translating on-the-ground insights into product refinement

• Ensure field learnings are incorporated as systematic product evolution, not one-off local adjustments

7) Advanced Technology Integration

• Partner closely with Advanced Technologies to translate emerging innovations (e.g., AI accelerators, power architectures, cooling systems, energy solutions) into the core product portfolio

• Ensure new technologies are integrated as repeatable, governed platform capabilities-not one-off exceptions

• Align technology development with product roadmap priorities, capital deployment, and global scalability requirements

What Success Looks Like

• Portfolio coherence: Platforms operate as an integrated system

• Capital efficiency gains: Measurable improvements in cost, speed, and scalability

• Technology leadership: Proactive positioning vs. reactive adaptation

• Global consistency: Reduced exceptions and regional divergence

• Executive adoption: Product strategy actively drives enterprise decisions

Key Responsibilities

• Define and own portfolio-level product vision and roadmap

• Establish cross-platform integration strategy and standards

• Drive tradeoff decisions across cost, performance, risk, and scalability

• Create and enforce global product governance models

• Translate deployment, commissioning, and operational learning into systemic product improvements

• Influence executive and cross-functional stakeholders through clear decision frameworks

Qualifications

• 10+ years of experience owning complex infrastructure platforms or systems

• Demonstrated leadership of multi-product portfolios OR enterprise-scale system architectures

• Deep technical fluency in infrastructure systems: Power, cooling, modular construction, or related domains

• Proven ability to influence executive decision-making and translate technology disruption into product strategy

• Track record of delivering improvements in cost, schedule, scalability, or adoption
