Infra Hardware TPM - Compute Systems (Technical Leadership)

Meta is seeking a Technical Program Manager (TPM) experienced in managing large-scale compute hardware systems, including roadmapping and deployment. This position will collaborate with cross-functional teams in Meta's Infrastructure organization to build the core building blocks of Meta's infrastructure, which support our portfolio of applications. This role will focus on creating strategies, roadmaps, and executing plans to support the development and deployment of new generation compute products spanning across x86, and ARM products. These platforms are critical to supporting Meta's various software workloads, and are a key enabler to supporting our infrastructure scale. The TPM will work with external and internal partners to influence and define roadmaps based on technical and business considerations, lead customer and stakeholder alignment, and drive integration with Meta's capacity planning tools and systems across a portfolio of products. On individual programs, this role will be responsible for leading design and development, delivering hardware into data centers, influencing orchestration systems, software tooling, and provisioning, driving testing, software performance evaluation and tuning for production applications and use cases. This role will work with infrastructure hardware development, infrastructure software, capacity planning, data center, network infrastructure and infrastructure sourcing teams. Meta's Infrastructure Engineering organization is responsible for the growth, management, and 24x7 upkeep of all Meta's products and services.
