The Director of Logistics owns the movement of customer equipment across the DCSL network — from origin pickup, into and between DCSL warehouses, and out to final data center sites. Storage and staging keep equipment safe on the ground; this role makes sure it gets there and leaves on time, intact, and in compliance with every permit and regulation along the way.

The Director of Logistics builds and manages the carrier and transportation-provider network, owns routing and dispatch, and is accountable for on-time, damage-free delivery of mission-critical freight. This role also extends DCSL's logistics expertise beyond our own network: it stands up and runs dedicated logistics programs on behalf of OEM and manufacturer partners, managing their transportation needs as a service.

The Director of Logistics reports to the Vice President of Logistics and Integrated Services, partnering closely on the approved provider bench, setting qualification and safety standards for any carrier or transportation vendor dispatched on DCSL's behalf. This role coordinates directly with Program PMs and Warehouse PMs so freight arrives and departs in sync with customer timelines and site readiness.

• Evaluate and onboard new carriers as DCSL expands into new markets or lanes

• Own end-to-end dispatch and routing for inbound and outbound freight across the network
• Coordinate with Program PMs to align transportation schedules with customer commitments and project timelines
• Coordinate with Warehouse PMs and the Director of Warehousing Operations so inbound and outbound freight lines up with dock schedules, staging capacity, and load-out windows
• Plan routing for oversized/overweight heavy-haul loads, securing permits, escorts, and any required state or local approvals

• Own DOT/FMCSA compliance for all DCSL-arranged transportation and hold every carrier accountable to DCSL's safety and regulatory standards
• Maintain current heavy-haul and oversized-load permitting across every market DCSL operates in
• Set and enforce standards for load securement, rigging-for-transport, and handling of high-value, mission-critical equipment in transit
• Partner with the Vice President of Logistics and Integrated Services on incident response and root-cause resolution for any transportation-related safety event

• Own the transportation/freight budget, tracking cost per move, on-time performance, and damage/claims rates
• Report logistics performance metrics to the Vice President of Logistics and Integrated Services, and keep Program and Warehousing Operations leadership informed
• Drive continuous improvement in routing efficiency, carrier performance, and freight cost as the network scales
