As a Compute and Storage Demand Manager, you'll be responsible for developing close partnerships internally and externally to build mid-to-long range demand outlooks to inform business strategy and execution. You will apply your technical expertise in infrastructure and data center build/deployment, coupled with advanced analytics and forecasting capabilities. This role presents an opportunity for a technically adept individual to drive supply chain initiatives in Data Center equipment for AI capacity delivery and significantly impact the performance of our operations.Demand Manager, Compute and Storage Responsibilities

• Develop core partnerships with Capacity, Sourcing, Engineering and Finance teams to build the mid-to-long term demand planning and forecasting strategies.
• Develop and manage an optimized forecast to support build out of Network, Data Center Construction and Compute & Storage.
• Develop and build forecasting models and related strategies in collaboration with Capacity and Data Science Engineering teams that incorporate cost optimization, Infra Capacity and Engineering feedback on Rack optionality, AI/GenAI strategies and Network Topology. Develop what-if planning models (flexibility simulations), Power-to-Rack conversion constraint build outs, and planning systems for demand (Oracle).
• Build and utilize planning software to manage supply chain processes. Collaborate with our Enterprise Products, Analytics and SWE teams to continually enhance our automation efforts, optimizing efficiency and accuracy in our supply chain operations.
• Build out AI/GenAI technical forecasting models, that consider the engineering options for rack demand (ROCE/IB, HBME2e vs. HBM3 GPUs, HTTM-Next GPU transition, Artemis, AMD) and collaborate with Capacity in driving demand trade-offs.
