Supply Chain Lead, Large Clusters
Infrastructure Supply Chain and Engineering (ISCE) ensures Meta's infrastructure capacity needs are met and delivered by Meta's global supply chain. This includes enabling on-time and sufficient delivery of data center equipment (ex. power, cooling, cabling), network hardware (ex. switches), and compute and storage (ex. racks) across Meta's global infrastructure fleet. With the continued importance of AI-enabling infrastructure, there is a corresponding shift in Meta's supply chain strategy; rather than delivering racks or other hardware in isolation, it is now imperative to deliver clusters as a coordinated infrastructure product.Minimum QualificationsBlend of technical and operational experience to understand the relationship between technical roadmap, demand/supply, manufacturing and negotiations5+ years of supply chain centric technical experience in hyperscale data centers, semiconductor industry, automation/robotics and/or associated industriesBS in Engineering, Suppl Chain or related technical field or equivalent combination of educationKnowledge of technology roadmaps and launch & scale of hardware systemsProven experience moving from strategy to execution and delivering resultsInterpersonal and communication skills with experience influencing, negotiating, building consensus and making strategic decisionsProven experience interfacing with and establishing relationships with leadership at suppliers or customersPreferred QualificationsExperience adhering to and implementing responsible, ethical AI practices (e.g., risk assessment, bias mitigation, quality and accuracy reviews)Experience interfacing with internal & external partners in an entrepreneurial and cross-functional environment, requiring a latitude for independent judgment while coordinating people and technical resourcesDemonstrated ability to integrate AI tools to optimize/redesign workflows and drive measurable impact (e.g., efficiency gains, quality improvements)Master's Degree in Business or EngineeringDemonstrated ongoing AI skill development (e.g., prompt/context engineering, agent orchestration) and staying current with emerging AI technologiesResponsibilitiesLeverage technical understanding of interdependencies across - network, DC and server - hardware supply chain & deployments to drive a converged capacity-delivery outcome for Meta's AI large clustersServe as consolidated voice and source-of-truth to customer organizations and internal leadership on large cluster, supply chain statusDevelop and implement mid- to long-term cluster delivery strategy for Meta and Meta's supply chain partners. This includes (a) cross-team product coordination, (b) cluster optionality and contingency plans, (c) cluster delivery staging and logistics and (d) cluster demand feasibility modelsIdentify, flag, and coordinate the response to major technical, material, financial, and information risks impeding cluster deliveryPartner with the planning team on finalizing demand and running supply scenarios. Partner with the sourcing team on commercial readiness of suppliers, and the NPI team on new hardware introduction. Lastly, partner with the manufacturing & delivery teams, and manage launch, manufacturing and deployment of hardware for large clustersEngage as needed with supplier's material, production, and technical teams to track, consolidate, and de-risk major challenges across large cluster deliveryDevelop and maintain critical-path simulations, engineering economic estimates, and contingency plans in order to ensure cluster product delivery, on-time, and within acceptable budgetary guidelinesMaintain current knowledge of the technology and industry trends for large clusters. Work cross functionally to define future technology directions with outsourced manufacturing suppliersAbout MetaMeta builds technologies that help people connect, find communities, and grow businesses. When Facebook launched in 2004, it changed the way people connect. Apps like Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp further empowered billions around the world. Now, Meta is moving beyond 2D screens toward immersive experiences like augmented and virtual reality to help build the next evolution in social technology. People who choose to build their careers by building with us at Meta help shape a future that will take us beyond what digital connection makes possible today-beyond the constraints of screens, the limits of distance, and even the rules of physics.Equal Employment OpportunityMeta is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity employer.
