The posting

Network Site Investments (NSI) secures and delivers the physical foundation that Meta's network runs on. The team evaluates markets, selects sites, partners with third-party data center providers that negotiate agreements for land, space, power, and interconnection, and manages the supplier, developer, operator, and landlord relationships that turn investment decisions into operational capacity. This is a global remit spanning established and emerging markets, where long procurement lead times, constrained supply, and multi-year commitments require disciplined investment and delivery decisions.

As Director, you will lead the global investment strategy and end-to-end delivery program for two connected portfolios: the edge footprint that places capacity close to users, and the colocation midpoint facilities that aggregate and carry traffic between regions. You will translate demand forecasts into a multi-year pipeline of markets, sites, and capital commitments, and lead execution from market entry and site selection through commercial agreements, design integration, construction, commissioning, operational readiness, and handoff. You will be accountable for delivering capacity against schedule, budget, quality, reliability, and capacity objectives.

The midpoint portfolio increasingly requires greenfield development rather than leasing existing facilities. You will work closely with external capital investors and third-party data center partners to lead land identification, utility and power procurement, developer and partner selection, build-to-suit structuring, and delivery oversight where existing facilities cannot meet requirements. Working with engineering, compute, deployment, and operations teams, you will ensure that facilities meet the power, cooling, connectivity, and readiness requirements for timely deployment.

You will lead and develop a globally distributed organization of site investment and site delivery managers, including program and project leaders. You will build leadership depth and regional coverage, set clear performance expectations, and establish the operating discipline needed to manage a complex portfolio. You will partner with Network Planning, Capacity Planning, Backbone Planning, Sourcing, Legal, Finance, Tax, Policy, Energy, Data Center Site Selection, and design and operations teams to align investment decisions with technical requirements and business commitments.

Responsibilities

  • Global Strategy and Site Investment
  • Own the global multi-year investment strategy and pipeline for edge sites and colocation midpoints, translating network and capacity demand forecasts into a sequenced plan of markets, sites, and capital commitments. Validate demand signals and identify where physical constraints limit delivery
  • Lead greenfield midpoint development, including market and land identification, utility and power procurement, developer and partner selection, build-to-suit structuring, and oversight from initial investment through delivery
  • Negotiate and execute colocation, space and power, land, build-to-suit, development, and interconnection agreements. Govern the contract lifecycle through drafting and redlining, execution, performance management, renewal, expansion, escalation, and exit
  • Build and defend investment cases using total cost of ownership, cost per kW, lease-versus-build analysis, and capital and operating plans. Own portfolio and project budgets, allocate resources, and make informed trade-offs among cost, capacity, schedule, and risk
  • Drive entry into new markets with Legal, Tax, Policy, and Energy partners, addressing entity structure, regulatory requirements, permitting, power availability, and in-country partner considerations
  • Delivery, Integration, and Operational Readiness
  • Lead end-to-end delivery across planning, design integration, construction, tenant fit-out, commissioning, operational readiness, and handoff, holding internal teams and external partners accountable for approved schedule, budget, quality, reliability, and capacity objectives
  • Oversee integrated program and project schedules, dependencies, resource plans, and readiness milestones with colocation providers and internal infrastructure, network, compute, deployment, and operations teams, including readiness for large-scale GPU and AI infrastructure deployment
  • Coordinate design and deployment requirements with engineering teams and providers. Oversee integration of power, cooling, networking, and structured cabling systems so facility delivery and tenant fit-out align with approved designs, specifications, and capacity requirements
  • Support and partner with engineering and network stakeholders on strategic site reviews and site walks to assess execution, coordination, quality, and readiness against approved specifications, industry standards, and operational requirements
  • Review and maintain commissioning and acceptance records, handoff materials, and problem-solving documentation
  • Maintain a portfolio-wide view of investment, construction, integration, and readiness risks. Close gaps in risk identification, drive mitigation and recovery plans, and communicate impacts on capacity availability, deployment schedules, and business commitments to executive leadership
  • People Leadership, Partnerships, and Continuous Improvement
  • Lead, hire, coach, and develop a globally distributed team and its managers. Set strategic priorities, delegate effectively, align resources with changing business needs, and build succession depth and regional coverage so no region depends on a single individual
  • Drive consistent performance management, tailored feedback, and development planning. Partner with HR on hiring, promotion, and talent strategy; identify skill gaps and create opportunities for leaders and teams to develop expertise and share knowledge
  • Serve as the senior relationship owner and escalation point for colocation providers, developers, strategic suppliers, and landlords. Oversee vendor and contractor selection, contract compliance, and delivery performance, resolving high-impact commercial and execution issues
  • Build effective cross-functional partnerships and empower teams to resolve barriers across investment, engineering, construction, deployment, and operations. Seek and incorporate varied perspectives to align stakeholders on priorities, responsibilities, and outcomes
  • Represent the global portfolio to senior leadership and external partners, securing investment approval, funding, and alignment on sequencing and major trade-offs
  • Establish operating cadences, metrics, provider evaluations, and tooling that make portfolio health and delivery status clear. Prioritize improvements to processes and workflows, coach teams on root-cause analysis, and apply lessons learned to improve cost efficiency, quality, and scalable delivery

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Real Estate, Economics, Engineering, Public Policy, or equivalent practical experience
  • 12+ years of experience developing and executing infrastructure asset, site investment, or large-scale data center delivery programs, including experience across a global portfolio
  • 8+ years of experience leading and developing teams, including experience managing managers and geographically distributed teams
  • Experience negotiating and closing colocation, space and power, land, real estate, build-to-suit, or comparable commercial infrastructure agreements
  • Experience with greenfield infrastructure development, including site selection, utility and power procurement, developer engagement, and development or build-to-suit agreements
  • Experience leading complex infrastructure delivery programs from planning and design coordination through construction, commissioning, operational readiness, and handoff
  • Experience managing program budgets, integrated schedules, delivery risks, quality, and external provider performance
  • Experience leading multi-disciplinary programs with engineering, legal, finance, sourcing, deployment, and operations stakeholders, and communicating investment and delivery decisions to senior leadership

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with industrial-scale site selection, real estate evaluation and acquisition, development and construction, utility agreements, energy procurement, permitting, and financial modeling
  • Understanding of critical facility systems, including switchgear, generators, cooling, structured cabling, integrated testing, and commissioning
  • Working knowledge of backbone and edge architectures, points of presence, and interconnection, and how network requirements influence site selection and delivery
  • Experience in economic development policy, infrastructure development, or public-private infrastructure financing
  • Experience in the carrier-neutral data center and interconnection facility market, including operator pricing for space, power, and cross-connects
  • Experience delivering greenfield data center or large-scale network facilities in multiple countries, including partner-led and build-to-suit structures
  • Experience operating in emerging markets across EMEA, APAC, LATAM, MENA, or Sub-Saharan Africa, including regulatory, entity, and in-country partner considerations
  • Experience with agreement drafting and redlining, executive presentations, provider performance improvement, and portfolio-level investment governance
  • Experience preparing facilities for high-density GPU clusters or hyperscale AI compute environments, including power and cooling requirements, tenant fit-out, systems integration, and deployment readiness
  • Experience managing long procurement lead times and constrained supply, making sequencing decisions with incomplete information, and recovering at-risk delivery programs
