What You'll Do
CoreWeave's Data Center Operations organization runs the physical infrastructure behind one of the world's leading AI cloud platforms: the GPU clusters that frontier AI labs and enterprises use to train and serve their models. As CoreWeave expands into Asia-Pacific, we're building a regional operations organization from the ground up.

- Build and lead the APAC operations organization (Regional/Area Managers, Data Center Managers, and Technicians), including hiring plans, leadership bench, and on-call coverage
- Adapt global SOPs, KPIs, and tooling for APAC,
so that standards are followed consistently on site across countries and are not just documented
- Manage colocation partners, contractors, and vendors directly: drive schedule and SLA performance, escalate firmly, and decide when to course-correct or exit
- Lead new-site readiness and turn-up in partnership with Construction and Deployment, taking capacity from handoff to production on time
- Navigate local labor, regulatory, safety, and compliance requirements across multiple APAC jurisdictions
- Lead the response to critical (SEV-1) incidents in the region and represent APAC operations in executive reviews and global operating cadences
Who You Are

- Proven ownership of live, production data center operations in APAC (operating sites, not only construction or project delivery) across more than one country
- Experience at a hyperscaler, large cloud provider, or major colocation/data center operator running high-density or mission-critical environments
- Track record of building and scaling operations teams of [XX+] people across multiple sites, including hiring and developing managers
- Hands-on experience managing colocation, facilities, and contractor relationships against SLAs, including performance management and commercial escalation
- Working knowledge of APAC labor law, regulatory, and EHS requirements across multiple jurisdictions (e.g., Singapore, India, Korea, Japan, Australia)

Preferred
