IREN is a vertically integrated AI Cloud provider, delivering large-scale data centers and GPU clusters for AI training and inference. IREN’s platform is underpinned by its expansive portfolio of grid-connected land and power in renewable-rich regions across North America, Europe and APAC.
Reporting to the Director, Network Delivery, the Senior Project Manager – Site Network Delivery is IREN’s on-site owner’s representative for network infrastructure on one data center campus. The role manages the low-voltage contractors installing fiber and structured cabling, drives meet-me room, entrance and network-room readiness, and makes sure the pathway, rack and power dependencies for network infrastructure are built into every building from the start.
This is a field role, on site full time and embedded with the campus building teams: same coordination meetings, same look-ahead, same RFI and submittal logs as the construction project managers and superintendents. The role takes day-to-day sequencing from the campus Project Director, delivers to the standards set by Network Infrastructure Engineering, and works alongside the Senior Project Managers – Network Delivery responsible for carrier delivery to the campus.

The superintendent directs the crews; this role owns what gets built and what done looks like for network scope.
With 100% renewable energy, we build, own and operate our data centers and take pride in being at the forefront of sustainable solutions for the ever-evolving applications of high-performance compute. We believe that human progress is invaluable, but it should be done in the right way – responsibly, sustainably and having a positive impact on the communities we operate in.
