Requirements
- Experience: 5+ years in Product Management or Technical Operations within Global Service organizations, specifically in DCIM, BMS, or Critical Infrastructure.
- Mathematical Proficiency: Strong background in mathematics (Linear Algebra, Calculus, Statistics, or Numerical Analysis) to interpret AI model outputs and perform complex ROI and performance calculations.
- AI & Software Expertise: Deep understanding of AI Optimization software stacks, including the integration of Cloud-based training/inference engines with On-Premises control logic for low-latency mechanical response.
- Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of liquid cooling (CDUs, Secondary Fluid Networks) and integrated electrical power distribution models.
- Systems Thinking: Ability to map complex telemetry across power and cooling domains to physical service workflows and hardware safety guardrails.
- Commercial Acumen: Experience in Performance-Based Contracting and ROI modeling, demonstrating value through service-led optimization.
- Global Mindset: Proven ability to scale software-enabled services across multiple regions with varying technical maturity levels.
Responsibilities
- Hybrid Software Strategy: Oversee the deployment and lifecycle of AI Optimization software, managing the architectural nuances between Cloud-based predictive modeling and On-Premises real-time execution layers.
- Mathematical Modeling & Validation: Apply advanced statistical and mathematical methods to validate the efficacy of predictive cooling algorithms, ensuring that the software’s "Workload-Aware" logic aligns with actual thermodynamic and electrical outcomes.
- Power & Cooling Model Strategy: Develop and maintain global service standards for integrated Next Optimization power and cooling models, ensuring that electrical and thermal management systems operate as a single, workload-aware entity.
- Service-Led Roadmap: Define requirements for the global rollout of Next AI Optimization, ensuring service technicians and remote engineers have the tools to maintain peak hardware performance.
- Operationalizing AI: Work with GSO to embed Next AI Optimization logic into standard operating procedures (SOPs), allowing global teams to preemptively address thermal challenges through workload-aware cooling strategies.
- Performance Auditing: Establish the global framework for auditing Recovered Capacity and verifying performance gains through rigorous data analysis to trigger performance-based contract milestones.
- SLA Innovation: Shift Global Service SLAs from "Response Time" to "Performance Guarantees," leveraging real-time telemetry to benchmark facility health against optimal conditions.
