Company mission
To manage the complexities of AI growth to make supercomputing accessible and push the limits of what's possible.
Role
Who you are
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience
- 7+ years of technical program management experience in large-scale compute infrastructure, cloud, or platform environments
- Experience operating in a rapidly growing or fast-scaling infrastructure environment, with programs designed to hold up under 2x, 5x, or greater fleet growth
- Strong technical aptitude across infrastructure domains (compute, storage, networking, hardware, or SRE)
- Demonstrated ability to use data and metrics to drive prioritization, execution, and decision-making
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, including executive-level reporting
Desirable
- Experience operating at scale in data center, cloud infrastructure, or hyperscale environments balancing reliability investments against capacity goals, with an understanding of how operational decisions affect sellable capacity
- Familiarity with reliability frameworks such as SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, incident management practices, and root cause analysis
- Understanding of hardware failure and processes, including failure diagnosis, vendor coordination, and replacement lifecycle management
- Background in observability, monitoring, or telemetry systems (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry)
- Experience with fleet lifecycle management (provisioning, firmware/OS updates, decommissioning) at scale
What the job involves
- CoreWeave is building the world's largest AI Cloud platform, and our fleet is growing at extraordinary speed
- We're seeking a Senior Technical Program Manager to own fleet-wide reliability and operations programs that keep pace with that growth
- This role partners closely with Compute, Networking, Data Center, and Operations teams to drive improvements in fleet operating efficiency — maximizing the percentage of fleet capacity that is healthy, available, and sellable — alongside reliability and stability goals
- You'll act as the central owner for fleet reliability and operations programs: aligning teams on priorities, defining success metrics, driving execution, and ensuring improvements hold at scale — not just land once and regress as the fleet scales
- Establish and own fleet reliability metrics and dashboards (e.g., failure rates, MTTR, incident trends, capacity availability and utilization rates), with visibility into how these trend as the fleet expands
- Drive alignment on fleet reliability OKRs across engineering and operations teams
- Identify systemic reliability gaps across hardware, firmware, software, networking, storage, and operational processes
- Lead complex, cross-functional programs to improve fleet delivery, readiness, and operational stability that scale with fleet growth, avoiding solutions that only work at current size
- Define program plans, milestones, dependencies, risks, and success criteria for reliability initiatives
- Proactively manage cross-team dependencies and unblock execution across multiple engineering organizations
- Track progress against goals, surface risks early, and communicate status clearly to stakeholders and leadership
- Participate in major incident reviews and root cause analysis, ensuring follow-up actions are tracked to closure
- Use data and post-incident learnings to prioritize reliability investments and drive corrective action
Our take
As AI continues to dominate the tech landscape, the demand for faster, more efficient cloud infrastructure is only intensifying. Traditional cloud providers often struggle with the sheer speed and scale required to power advanced AI models, leaving a gap for more specialized players. And that's where CoreWeave comes in, a company purpose-built to handle the heavy computational lift that the AI era demands.
CoreWeave's story is an interesting one too. What began in 2017 as a small crypto mining venture has evolved into one of the leading AI-focused cloud providers in the world. Its data centers are packed with high-end GPUs optimized for machine learning and generative AI, serving major clients like Microsoft and OpenAI. By designing its infrastructure around the needs of modern AI workloads rather than retrofitting older systems, CoreWeave has carved out a distinct and highly valuable niche in the market.
That focus in paying off in a big way too. Analyst project CoreWeave's revenue to soar from $5.3B in 2025 to the mid-$20Bs by 2028, up from just $16M in 2022. While there is competition from tech giants like Amazon and Google, CoreWeave's speed, specialization, and bold investment strategy put in in a very powerful position to keep riding (and helping shape) the AI boom.
