Description and Requirements

Role Summary Lenovo is a global leader in AI infrastructure, high-performance computing (HPC) and data centre technology. The AI Cloud and Data Center Services team delivers complex, business-critical environments that enable customers to deploy and scale accelerated computing globally. The Senior Technical Project Manager leads Lenovo’s most complex AI infrastructure and data centre projects end to end. The role owns delivery from project mobilisation and detailed planning through manufacturing, procurement, logistics, site readiness, installation, integration, commissioning, customer acceptance and transition into operations. Operating across global, multi-vendor environments, the role converts technical and contractual commitments into a controlled project plan and maintains hands‑on ownership of scope, schedule, budget, quality, safety and risk. It coordinates customers, partners, manufacturing, supply‑chain and technical teams, resolves critical dependencies and drives delivery to agreed milestones and outcomes.

Responsibilities

The Senior Technical Project Manager owns one or more complex, high-value projects spanning countries, delivery teams, suppliers and technology domains. The role is accountable for project execution, commercial control, governance, risk, customer satisfaction and successful handover.

Typical Activities Include

• Lead complex, high-value AI infrastructure and data centre projects from mobilisation through acceptance and operational handover.
• Build and maintain the integrated project plan, work-breakdown structure, milestones, dependencies, resources and governance cadence.
• Coordinate technical workstreams, suppliers and delivery teams; assign clear actions, remove blockers and hold owners to committed dates.
• Maintain project controls, including RAID logs, decisions, change requests, reporting, escalation and recovery plans.

Project Mobilization and Delivery Readiness

• Partner with Sales, Solutions, Finance, Commercial, Procurement, Legal and Service Delivery to confirm that scope, assumptions, resources, dates and acceptance criteria are executable.

• Baseline the project scope, schedule, budget, governance, stakeholder plan and delivery controls.

Executive Stakeholder Management

• Build trusted relationships with senior customer, partner and Lenovo stakeholders.
• Present programme status, financial performance, risks, mitigations and outcomes to executive steering committees.
• Influence timely decisions and align stakeholders across geographies and functions.

Financial and Commercial Ownership

• Own programme budgets, forecasts, resource utilisation, revenue, margin and profitability throughout the delivery lifecycle.
• Protect commercial outcomes through contractual compliance, disciplined change control and supplier performance management.
• Drive delivery efficiency, financial accuracy and customer value.

Technical Delivery Leadership

• Own end-to-end AI infrastructure and data centre delivery, from design and site readiness through installation, integration, commissioning, acceptance and operational handover.
• Direct deployment of GPU clusters, racks, cabling, network, storage and software, coordinating power, cooling and facility dependencies across live, new‑build, colocation and hyperscale environments.
• Convert the solution into an integrated critical‑path plan covering resources, budget, quality, safety, testing and acceptance.
• Lead design assurance, FAT, SAT, integrated systems testing, performance validation and defect closure, maintaining control of scope, schedule, cost, risk, change and dependencies.

Manufacturing, Supply Chain and Partner Delivery

• Own the manufacturing, partner and supply‑chain plan, aligning engineering approvals, bills of material, production, long‑lead items, logistics and required‑on‑site dates to the critical path.
• Hold OEMs, suppliers, logistics providers, construction and colocation partners, and specialist subcontractors accountable for capacity, quality and milestones.
• Anticipate production, component, transport, customs and site‑access constraints; drive recovery, alternate sourcing or resequencing before milestones are affected.
• Coordinate factory testing, shipment, receipt, storage and installation release so equipment arrives complete, compliant and aligned to site readiness.

Project Governance and Continuous Improvement

• Apply consistent project governance, delivery methods, controls and reporting standards.
• Capture lessons learned and improve project quality, predictability and customer satisfaction.
• Support and mentor project coordinators and less‑experienced project managers when required.
