They will be able to work independently to prioritize, craft, and execute deliverable as well as effectively work with partner teams that impact their primary user group.

    This role will sit within global construction; however, they will be part of a larger organization that is diverse, positive, exceptionally talented, driven and responsible for the design, construction and operation of industry leading data center facilities. They will need to excel at managing multiple priorities and learning the pain points of their primary users, being able to execute system implementation effectively across subject matter experts with a broad range of disciplines and/or cultural or regional differences. The ideal candidate operates effectively in an ambiguous environment and drives structure without constraining business objectives.

This includes establishing system mechanisms that enable teams to consistently deliver against defined standards, globally; managing system standards and enhancements for global internal and external users; auditing the team's metrics to identify and address trends or issues; and supporting the introduction of new technology that enables greater efficiencies within the construction management life cycle.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here
