About the role

Futura is partnering with a leading AI infrastructure innovator to hire a Facility Operations Lead supporting next-generation hyperscale AI data centers.
Locations:
  • Buffalo, NY or West Texas (multiple campuses)
  • Onsite 5 days (relocation assistance provided)
  • This is a critical infrastructure role with equity participation, focused exclusively on data center infrastructure, power, cooling, resiliency, and operational risk in high-density AI environments.
  • Why This Role MattersAI workloads demand extreme infrastructure reliability.
  • You will serve as the onsite owner of infrastructure risk - ensuring power distribution, cooling systems, and redundancy strategies are engineered and executed without failure.
  • This is not a broad site management role.
  • This is infrastructure authority.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Own infrastructure risk assessment and mitigation
  • Lead power and cooling capacity planning across live GPU environments
  • Design and oversee redundancy strategies (2N / N+1 / N+2)
  • Execute and control high-risk change management
  • Oversee commissioning processes (L1–L5)
  • Serve as escalation lead during infrastructure-related incidents
Qualifications:
  • 5+ years in hyperscale or mission-critical infrastructure environments
  • Deep expertise in UPS systems, generators, chillers, cooling towers, AHUs, and electrical distribution
  • Strong understanding of concurrent maintainability and redundancy modeling
  • Proven ability to lead during high-severity infrastructure events
Hyperscale experience is highly valuable but not required. Mission-critical industrial infrastructure backgrounds are also accepted.
