Imagine a future where everyone has instant, low-cost access to intelligence. We’re building a fully featured European AI cloud - with everything one needs to train, experiment with, and deploy AI models. In addition, our GPUs run on 100% renewable energy.

We’re ambitious, curious, and gutsy doers. We practice a low hierarchy across the company and high morale in our teams. We’ve already achieved a lot, yet we’re only getting started. Now it’s your chance to join the ride. We offer more than just the job - we offer a career-defining opportunity to be part of building something big!

Join Verda while it’s still being built - not once it’s finished.

Why Verda

• Cash + equity compensation along with various fringe benefits (e.g., healthcare, lunch, wellbeing, etc.).

• Profitable operations with rapid, sustained growth.

• 31 nationalities, with 6 different ones on the management team.

• An opportunity with make a clear impact and work alongside world-class engineers, researchers, and partners across the global AI ecosystem.

Practicalities

• Traveling: Frequent travel required.

• Employment type: Full-time and permanent.

About the role

You are the primary engine behind the physical expansion of our digital footprint. Your mission is to lead the end-to-end delivery of mission-critical infrastructure, ranging from large-scale greenfield build-outs to precision tenant fit-outs in global colocation facilities. You ensure that every megawatt of capacity is delivered safely, on time, and to the exacting standards required for high-density AI and cloud workloads.

Key Responsibilities

1. Full-Lifecycle Ownership: Drive projects from initial site inception and design through procurement, construction, and final commissioning.

2. Hybrid Project Execution: Concurrently manage a diverse portfolio, balancing multi-year, large-scale builds with fast-paced colocation fit-out projects.

3. Stakeholder & Vendor Orchestration: Act as the central point of contact for internal engineering teams, general contractors, and colocation providers to ensure alignment on design intent and operational goals.

4. Fit-out Precision: Oversee the installation of critical "white space" infrastructure—including power strips, overhead busways, containment systems, and liquid cooling manifolds—within active, live-data center environments.

5. Risk & Budget Management: Proactively identify and mitigate delivery risks while maintaining rigid oversight of multi-million dollar capital budgets to prevent margin erosion.

6. Quality & Safety Governance: Lead site walks and supervise integrated system testing (IST) to ensure all MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing) and CSA (Civil, Structural, Architectural) packages meet zero-downtime reliability standards.

7. Agile Resource Allocation: Ability to shift resources and priorities rapidly between major construction sites and smaller, high-velocity fit-out initiatives.

8. Standardization Advocate: Contribute to the development of repeatable "deployment playbooks" and handover templates to streamline global expansions.

Ideal Background

Experience: 5+ years of project management experience in mission-critical environments (e.g., data centers, semiconductors, or pharma). Technical Knowledge: Solid grasp of data center core components, specifically power distribution, high-density cooling (Air/Liquid), and structured cabling.

General Skills & Personal Characteristics

To succeed in this team, candidates must look beyond their CAD screens and embrace a high-ownership, peer-to-peer collaboration style:

• Adaptive Problem Solvers: You don’t wait for a manual. When a 100kW rack presents a new thermal challenge, you iterate quickly and find a path forward.

• Radical Transparency: You communicate complex technical risks clearly and early. You value "getting it right" over "being right."

• Holistic Thinkers: Even if you are the Electrical Lead, you understand how a pipe leak affects a busbar. You design with the entire system in mind.

• Practical Visionaries: You have the "Grand Design" in your head but keep your feet on the ground—focusing on buildability, serviceability, and cost-efficiency.

• The "Helper Peer" Mentality: You treat your teammates as collaborators, not silos. You are willing to jump into a different discipline to help the team meet a deadline.

• Outcome-Oriented: You aren't just "doing engineering"; you are building the foundation for the future of AI. You take pride in seeing your container go from a drawing to a humming 1MW reality.
