Experience partnering with cross-functional teams (engineering, product, finance, supply chain, operations) to deliver analytical insights that drive decisions.
Experience interfacing directly with external customers or partners (e.g. participating in customer reviews, presenting analysis, answering technical questions).
Experience building more advanced models (e.g. time series forecasting, scenario modeling, optimization) to support planning decisions.
Comfort working in ambiguous, rapidly changing environments and iterating quickly based on feedback.

Responsibilities

Support end-to-end capacity planning for compute servers, networking equipment, and datacenter facilities (power, cooling, space).
Build, maintain, and improve demand models and short- and long-term forecasts using rigorous quantitative methods.
Analyze demand signals from engineering, product, and sales to refine forecasts and highlight trends, anomalies, and risks.
Translate capacity forecasts into clear analytical outputs that support supply plans for hardware procurement, manufacturing, logistics, and datacenter deployment.
Identify capacity risks (e.g. supply shortages, deployment delays, technology transitions) through data analysis and help develop mitigation and contingency scenarios.
Develop, maintain, and improve dashboards and reporting tools for internal teams and leadership, tracking KPIs such as forecast accuracy, delivery performance, and capacity utilization.
Prepare analysis, reports, and slide materials for internal reviews, stakeholder meetings, and executive updates led by the Program Capacity Lead.
