You'll participate in or lead small project teams on larger installations and develop project contingency plans.

In this role, you will manage the physical deployment of data center related technology and partner with various stakeholders. You will ensure that goals, missions, and projects are successfully delivered and that they are repeatable across our global array of data centers.
