ResetData is shaping a future where AI is not only powerful – but sovereign, ethical, and purpose-built for Australia. In a world dominated by offshore models and opaque systems, ResetData offers a secure, onshore alternative that gives organisations true control over their data, deployment, and digital destiny.
Through partnerships with Centuria, NVIDIA and Dell, and infrastructure designed for scale and precision, ResetData is helping shape a sovereign AI ecosystem that reflects Australian laws, values, and strategic priorities. More than a platform, ResetData is a partner in shaping Australia's next era of intelligence – one that is self-determined, secure, and aligned to the future we choose to build.
This is your chance to play a pivotal role in some of Australia's most significant AI infrastructure builds.
Location: Sydney, Australia
The role:
We are looking for two experienced Infrastructure Project Managers to own the end-to-end delivery of two major data centre builds currently in planning across Sydney. These are complex, large-scale infrastructure projects spanning network, storage, power, cooling, and compute – the kind of programme that requires someone who has delivered serious infrastructure at scale.
You will be assigned to one of two projects, working closely with internal engineering teams, vendors, and third-party contractors to deliver on time, on scope, and to the high technical standards required for production AI infrastructure.
This is an initial 9 month engagement, with scope to extend as our portfolio of builds grows.
What you'll do:
- Own end-to-end delivery of your assigned data centre build project,
from initiation through commissioning and handover.
- Ensure planning, design and delivery integration with facility partners supplying data hall resources like power, cooling, hall construction, structured cabling. Managing dependencies and readiness for hardware and network deployment.
- Develop and maintain detailed project plans covering scope, timelines, risks, dependencies, and resource allocation
- Coordinate across internal technology engineering teams (Systems, Networks, Storage, AI Ops) and external vendors, contractors, and facilities partners
- Manage third-party procurement and vendor delivery in line with project milestones, including network and storage supply chains
- Run project governance: stand-ups, milestone reviews, steering updates, and change control
- Track and report on budget, schedule, quality, and risk – escalating early when things need to move
- Manage commissioning and acceptance testing for large-scale infrastructure (compute, networking fabric, storage, power, cooling) in readiness for customer deployment.
- Ensure handover documentation and operational runbooks are ready for the engineering operations team on go-live
- Maintain close coordination with the parallel PM and share lessons, risks, and resources across both builds where beneficial.
- Maintain registers across the DC delivery for decisions, risk and issues.
- Manage and control the build costs to the assigned budget.
What you'll bring:
- Proven track record delivering large-scale IT infrastructure or data centre projects – this is not a software delivery or process improvement role.
- Background from a bank, Telstra, hyperscaler, or large infrastructure operator (e.g. Airtrunk, NextDC, Equinix) strongly preferred.
- Experience managing cross-functional delivery across network, storage, compute, and facilities streams concurrently.
- Solid vendor management experience – you have held third-party suppliers to delivery commitments before.
- Comfortable with both Agile and waterfall/hybrid delivery models depending on what the work requires.
- Clear and structured communicator – able to produce tight status reports and steer executive conversations.
- Familiarity with data centre build programmes (rack and stack, cabling, power provisioning, cooling systems) is a significant advantage.
- Experience with GPU or AI infrastructure environments is desirable but not essential.
What else you need to know:
- Contract engagement: 9 months initial term, with extension possible as our build programme expands.
- Location: Sydney-based, with travel to project sites as required.
- Team first: You will be embedded within a passionate, expert engineering team building something genuinely significant for Australia.
Sound like you? Come join us as we shape the future of sovereign AI and cloud infrastructure.
