TL;DR · AI Cluster Technical Program Manager, Validation, Debug & Agentic AI

JOB TITLE: AI Cluster Technical Program Manager – Validation, Debug & Agentic AI The AI Cluster Technical Program Manager leads engineering programs focused on GPU platforms, rack-level solutions, and AI cluster validation. This role manages end-to-end delivery from GPU and server integration through rack bring-up, scale testing, failure analysis, and system debug closure for hyperscale and enterprise AI deployments. Key responsibilities include defining program plans, maintaining artifacts like dependency maps and risk logs, and driving alignment across GPU, CPU, firmware, and BIOS/BMC teams. The position requires coordinating multi-node scale testing, managing incident response, and championing Agentic AI for automated triage and log analysis. Candidates must possess technical depth in hardware and networking, utilizing tools like Jira and Confluence to solve complex infrastructure problems involving power, cooling, and system-level reliability across pre-production and fleet operations.

What you'll do

  • Define and drive program plans for AI infrastructure systems validation, including server integration and rack bring-up.
  • Manage core PM artifacts such as schedules, dependency maps, resource forecasts, and risk logs.
  • Lead end-to-end delivery of rack-level AI solutions including compute trays, cabling, power, and cooling infrastructure.
  • Coordinate multi-node and multi-rack scale testing, including test strategy, scheduling, and coverage tracking.
  • Act as the execution lead for platform debug, coordinating cross-functional teams for rapid triage and root-cause analysis.
  • Own incident management for critical deployment issues, leading cross-functional war rooms and executive communications.
  • Define and track operational metrics such as MTTD, MTTM, and MTTR to improve fleet reliability.
  • Drive the development and rollout of Agentic AI solutions for automated triage, log analysis, and incident management.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in systems, EE, CS, or a related engineering discipline.
  • PMP, Scrum Master, or equivalent program management training.
  • Experience leading complex hardware or AI infrastructure programs across bring-up, validation, and deployment phases.
  • Strong technical understanding of GPU-based AI systems, rack architectures, and datacenter infrastructure.
  • Proven ability to manage ambiguity, drive debug execution, and lead cross-functional teams without direct authority.
  • Proficiency with program management and execution tools such as Jira, Confluence, dashboards, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including executive-level status reporting.
  • Hands-on experience with GPU cluster scale testing, system stress, or performance validation (preferred).
