About the position

We are seeking a highly experienced and detail-oriented Senior Data Center Asset Management Portfolio Manager to join our growing retrofit data center construction Portfolio Management Office (PMO). The ideal candidate must possess extensive experience in data center asset management, particularly in analyzing CMMS data, run-time data, and failure data, as well as evaluating and mitigating operational risk. This senior role demands a seasoned professional with a proven track record in developing risk models, portfolio planning (utilizing asset data from CMMS into a roadmap for replacement of assets in future years), and capital planning (annual planning using risk scores), who can lead and coordinate accurate risk evaluation for over 1500 projects in a fiscal year. In this role, you will be responsible for data analysis and risk assessment, where you will analyze backlog project data, CMMS data, run-time data, and failure data to identify potential operational risks. You will develop and refine risk models for evaluating operational risks associated with retrofit data center projects and collaborate with internal stakeholders to evaluate and improve existing risk models. Additionally, you will be involved in tool development and automation, where you will develop automated tool-based requirements for the risk model to streamline risk assessment processes and implement and oversee the use of automated tools to ensure accurate and efficient risk evaluations. Project management and coordination will also be a key aspect of your responsibilities. You will lead and coordinate risk evaluation for over 1500 projects, ensuring timely completion of risk scores. This includes planning and managing the risk evaluation process, setting timelines, assigning tasks, and monitoring progress. You will facilitate and lead meetings with internal stakeholders to discuss risk assessments and mitigation strategies, navigating a highly matrixed organization and building consensus among competing stakeholders. Effective communication with various departments and levels of management will be essential to ensure alignment on risk management strategies and objectives. Furthermore, you will apply your knowledge and experience in ISO certified asset management and risk management frameworks to ensure compliance and best practices, staying updated on industry standards and incorporating relevant frameworks into the risk management process.
