DESCRIPTION
The Data Center Engineering Availability team is looking for a TPM to serve as a technical resource and leader. The builder will be responsible for driving large-scale global projects and initiatives, that directly impact capacity delivery and availability for our customers.

And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own
