Meta is seeking an experienced Area Program Delivery Director to join our Data Center Engineering & Construction Team.

The DEC Delivery organization and its sub teams operate in a matrix team structure and the Area Director will have overall responsibility for project success (to include all data cabling infrastructure), GC and trade partner relationships, team member development and relationship management with key cross functional operational partners (Facilities Operations, Edge Network Services and Facilities Engineering to name a few) in a culture of collaboration, safety and quality across the datacenter construction industry. The Area Director will lead an onsite team in a matrixed structure for Safety, QAQC and Project Controls (Cost + Schedule) toward delivery excellence and predictable outcomes. The entire team, including the Area Director, will be dedicated solely to this campus and located onsite.
