- Cultivate and maintain vendor and colocation partner relationships.
- Formulate efficiency strategies to ensure the timely completion of projects, and provide progress reports on builds to relevant stakeholders.

- Lead weekly toolbox talks and create training sessions to grow team knowledge across data center operations, power, networking, hardware, and fiber.
- Conduct regular 1:1s with all team members, document feedback, and build personal and career development plans that grow your technicians technically and professionally.
- Provide consistent, direct communication when performance or CoreWeave core values are not met, partnering with HR when further action is required.
