## About the role

Together AI is scaling its physical AI infrastructure rapidly — and we're looking for a Director of Data Center Operations to help us build it right. This is a ground-floor opportunity to own the operational foundation of Together's growing data center portfolio across the US and Asia.

## What they're looking for

- Deep, hands-on technical knowledge of data center power and cooling systems at the IT-adjacent layer — PDUs, CDUs, power distribution, and white space fit-out
- Proven experience designing and commissioning data center infrastructure, from evaluation through to live operation
- Experience operating data center infrastructure at meaningful scale, supporting large production workloads
- People leadership experience — you've hired, developed, and led technical operations teams
- A builder's instinct — you're comfortable standing up teams and functions from scratch, writing the playbook where none exists, and operating with ambiguity
- Strong vendor and contractor management skills — you know how to hold external partners accountable to timeline and quality
