Technical project manager - Network infrastructure - APAC

Role overview

Lead cross-team delivery of network infrastructure initiatives as operations expand across APAC. The work combines technical project leadership with hands-on understanding of engineering trade-offs: shaping unclear problems into executable plans, coordinating distributed teams, and helping internal tools and processes become trusted parts of day-to-day operations. This is an individual contributor role, with responsibility for delivery rather than people management.

Responsibilities - Own infrastructure initiatives from initial problem definition through implementation and adoption. - Define scope and success measures, align owners across network, SRE, software, security, platform, and data center teams, and drive decisions to completion. - Review technical proposals, identify unclear assumptions and failure modes, and surface dependencies and risks early. - Coordinate work across teams and time zones, keeping regional and European stakeholders informed with clear status. - Establish lightweight project practices for the APAC region and manage execution with a high degree of independence. - Ensure tools and workflows are adopted through documentation, runbooks, feedback, and operational readiness.

Requirements - Technical experience building, operating, or recovering infrastructure or software systems, with credibility among engineering teams. - Ability to read design documents, question assumptions, understand technical trade-offs, and turn ambiguous problems into delivery plans. - Experience leading complex initiatives across multiple technical teams and managing scope, dependencies, risks, and decisions. - Strong communication skills for distributed teams, including clear and candid status reporting. - Product-minded approach to internal infrastructure, including attention to usability, adoption, and operational outcomes. - Self-direction to establish ways of working in an early-stage regional expansion.

Nice to have - Experience in network automation, observability, or network device lifecycle management. - Familiarity with SLO/SLI practices, incident management, or production readiness. - Experience with CI/CD or change management for network or other high-impact infrastructure. - Exposure to secrets management, firmware rollouts, fleet operations, or hands-on scripting and automation.
