Senior Product Manager, Hyperscale/Data Center

Data Center Product Manager, IT Asset Lifecycle Management

ROLE SUMMARY

We are looking for a seasoned Product Manager to own and grow our front-of-lifecycle Data Center infrastructure services portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of hardware, software and services — covering the full spectrum of how compute, storage, and networking assets get specified, procured, configured, deployed, and managed at scale. You will work closely with Hyperscale cloud providers, Neo Cloud operators, Enterprise IT organizations, Colocation providers and OEMs/ODMs to deeply understand their needs and translate them into differentiated, high-impact and circular capabilities.

This is a highly cross-functional role that demands equal parts industry domain and technical credibility, strategic thinking, execution skills and executive communication. You will own the roadmap for services spanning hardware configuration, rack and stack, staging & deployment, forward and reverse logistics, smart hands and more 1 and you will be accountable for evaluating and validating the opportunity, developing recommendations, building the business case for funding, securing executive alignment, building, launching and scaling those capabilities.

WHY THIS ROLE

The Data Center infrastructure market is undergoing its most significant transformation in a generation 1 driven by AI workload growth, hyperscale capacity expansion, and the rapid rise of Neo Cloud operators. This role puts you at the center of that shift, building the capabilities that define how critical infrastructure gets deployed at scale. Youll have real ownership, executive visibility, and the opportunity to shape a product area with a significant growth trajectory.
