Meta is committed to attaining Net Zero emissions across our value chain in 2030. To support this, Meta is seeking a Technical Program Manager (TPM) experienced in hardware development and sustainability, defining and implementing Net Zero emissions programs, focused on value chain emissions. This position will set goals, create strategies, and execute plans to reduce datacenter hardware value chain emissions (Scope 3), in partnership with Meta's Net Zero, Sourcing, Hardware Engineering, and Fleet Sustaining, Datacenter Operations, Finance, and Capacity Planning teams. This position will provide program management support for cross-functional teams on topics including greenhouse gas emissions accounting, reporting, and forecasting, as well as emissions reduction initiatives such as design optimization, circularity, and re-use programs. Success will drive major contributions in reducing total emissions, by targeting and avoiding, reducing, or eliminating major sources. This role requires expertise in datacenter hardware design, complemented by domain expertise in sustainability and emissions. Broadly, this role is responsible to design and embed Scope 3 Net Zero practices in Meta hardware development programs for all program spaces (Compute, Storage, Network, AI, Silicon, Rack, and Power equipment). This includes institutionalizing processes for emissions data capture and reporting in Meta hardware development programs, design optimization for reduced emissions, developing and driving education programs with hardware teams, and developing business cases to drive further reductions. This role would work with Infrastructure Hardware development, Meta Net Zero and Sustainability teams, Capacity Planning, Data Center, Network Infrastructure, Finance, and Infrastructure sourcing teams. This role will reside within the Infrastructure Hardware development organization, and partner with the other aforementioned teams. This role will partner and drive Meta's hardware development organization and its partners to achieve Meta's goals efficiently, with the lowest possible added effort and overhead. Meta's Infrastructure Engineering organization is responsible for the growth, management and 24x7 upkeep of all Meta's products and services.

Infra Hardware Technical Program Manager (TPM) - Sustainability Responsibilities

• Own Meta Infrastructure Hardware's overall Net Zero program design, implementation, and success spanning three areas in a matrix organization covering a range of areas (Infrastructure Hardware development, Meta Net Zero and Sustainability teams, Capacity Planning, Data Center, Network Infrastructure, Finance, and Infrastructure sourcing teams) and across multiple physical locations. Area 1: Emissions data capture, reporting, and forecasting, for all hardware programs Area 2: Design and integrate Net Zero practices into existing development processes, capturing emissions data from estimate at design inception, to rigorous science-based methods by mass production, and generating emissions-optimized designs. Area 3: Driving business cases and implementation of circularity, re-use, and other emissions avoidance and reductions programs, with partner teams.


• Create and gather alignment across multiple organizations regarding the business value of reduce or eliminate emissions in new design programs, lifecycle extension, and circularity and extending it to external vendor partners.


• Create execution plans in partnership with technical leads involving: The evolution of Meta's carbon inventory, forecasting, pricing, and reporting systems Carbon reduction and avoidance programs (via design optimization, equipment re-use, and targeted avoidance / reduction programs)


• Lead maturation and streamlining process, continuously improving Net Zero practices in Meta Infrastructure, to be as efficient and integrated with existing development practices as possible.


• Drive overall communication to leadership, stakeholder and core working teams in regular cadence to bring awareness


• Develop and manage the overall program including defining scope, requirements, development model, schedules, and deliverables with engineering teams, partners, and stakeholders.


• Drive internal process improvements across multiple teams and functions.


• Provide hands-on support during implementation of new emissions programs and requirements, training partners and teaching while doing


• Proactively identify and mitigate risk to the Net Zero efforts

Minimum Qualifications

• B.S. in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.


• 10+ years of systems engineering, hardware engineering, software engineering, or technical product/program management experience.


• Experience delivering complex tech programs and/or products from inception to delivery.


• Knowledge of user needs, gathering requirements, and defining scope


• Experience operating autonomously across multiple teams, demonstrated critical thinking, and thought leadership.


• Communication experience and experience working with technical management teams to develop systems, solutions, and products.

• Analytical and problem-solving experience with large-scale systems.


• Experience establishing work relationships across multi-disciplinary teams and multiple partners in different time zones.


• Proven working knowledge of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions standards and policy.


• Working knowledge of GHG accounting principles and methods.


• Experience playing coordinating/leadership role in building partnerships with internal stakeholders in a corporate environment.


• Proven technical experience with greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) accounting, carbon reduction strategies, technology and evaluation techniques.

Preferred Qualifications

• Graduate degree preferred in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or a related technical discipline, or equivalent experience.


• Applied understanding and experience with where value chain emissions originate in datacenter hardware manufacturing, including and beyond raw material extraction.


• Knowledge of storage and networking hardware and technologies.


• Experience in large scale AI cluster build out or silicon development or data center architecture and deployment or capacity planning, migration, and turn-up.


• Experience setting and reporting on corporate GHG reduction targets and commitments (e.g. Net zero, SBTi).


• Web or Internet start-up environment and technical infrastructure management experience.


• Demonstrated leadership in developing value chain emissions reduction strategy for large corporations.


• Experience delivering projects aligned with large scale corporate goals through influence and collaboration.


• Technical knowledge of carbon reduction strategies, technology and evaluation techniques.
