What they’re looking for

Select a requirement to inspect fit, evidence or application context.

• Take the Demand Planning forecast plus direct input from research, pretraining, and inference planners, and convert it into concrete accelerator, interconnect, region, supporting-resource, and date requirements for each tranche. Represent those in sourcing negotiations and data center build reviews, including which contractual terms actually move delivery dates.
• The Capacity Planner signs fit-to-forecast; you sign whether the shape can land schedulable, healthy, and instrumented in that region on that date, with storage, egress, identity in place.
• A field relevant to the role as demonstrated through coursework, training, or professional experience

Helpful, not always essential

• Reserved-capacity onboarding, private offers, or capacity commitments with cloud or neocloud providers.
• Enough demand-planning exposure to challenge a forecast, translate it into per-tranche requirements, and feed delivery variance back into it.
• Data center or colocation delivery: power and space planning, network turn-up, site acceptance, vendor management.
• Accelerator health and burn-in, collective-communications sanity testing, or fleet-health SLOs — and a rigorous definition of "healthy."
• Systems of record or lifecycle services for infrastructure assets.
• Onboarding a new hardware generation into an existing scheduler and observability stack.
• The annual compensation range for this role is listed below.
• For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings ("OTE") range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role.
