About the role
Cerebras Systems builds the world's largest AI chip, 56 times larger than GPUs. This architecture allows Cerebras to deliver industry-leading training and inference speeds; over 10 times faster than GPU-based hyperscale cloud inference services.
This order of magnitude increase in speed is transforming the user experience of AI applications, unlocking real-time iteration and increasing intelligence via additional agentic computation.
Cerebras works with the leading model labs, global enterprises, and cutting-edge AI-native startups. OpenAI recently announced a multi-year partnership with Cerebras, to deploy 750 megawatts of scale, transforming key workloads with ultra high-speed inference.
The Role
The Deployment Manager - Global Data Center Build and Deploy is responsible for the end-to-end execution of AI cluster deployments within large-scale data centers, specifically taking from facility ready for power and cooling to customer hand-off. This role leads rack integration, high-density inter-rack cabling, and close coordination with facilities, networking, and operations teams to deliver Cerebras Wafer Scale Engine based clusters safely, on schedule, and to strict quality standards.
The ideal candidate has deep experience deploying AI infrastructure, understands the operational demands of high-power, high-thermal-density environments, and excels at troubleshooting complex cabling and integration issues. This role requires providing directions to technicians on the Data Center floor, and resolve any issue blocking build and deploy in data centers. The role requires traveling and physically present at Data Center weeks at a time.
Responsibilities
AI Cluster Deployment & Rack Integration

- Coordinate inter-rack and intra-rack cabling for AI clusters, including spine-leaf and pod-level designs
- Ensure proper routing, airflow clearance, labeling, and testing of all AI-related cabling
Facilities & Infrastructure Coordination
- Work closely with facilities teams on power capacity, cooling readiness, containment, and grounding for dense racks
- Coordinate deployment sequencing with facility commissioning milestones
- Validate white-space readiness before rack and cluster deployment
- Provide directions to technicians on the data center floor.
Troubleshooting & Issue Resolution
- Troubleshoot cabling, connectivity, and integration issues impacting AI cluster bring-up
- Lead root-cause analysis for deployment blockers related to cabling, hardware placement, or facilities dependencies

Cross-functional Execution
- Partner with network, server, AI platform, and operations teams to align on deployment plans and readiness
- Manage multiple parallel AI cluster deployments across sites or availability zones
- Communicate risks, dependencies, and milestones clearly to stakeholders
Quality, Standards & Documentation
- Ensure deployments follow company design standards, structured cabling best practices, and AI deployment playbooks
- Validate as-built documentation, labeling accuracy, and deployment checklists
- Maintain accurate records for cluster configuration, cabling, and deployment status
Safety & Risk Management
- Enforce EHS, data center safety, and access control procedures during deployment
- Ensure safe handling of heavy, high-power GPU equipment
- Proactively identify and mitigate deployment and operational risks
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, IT, or equivalent practical experience
- 10+ years of experience in data center deployments, infrastructure delivery, or integration roles
