The role sits in the site team with a solid line to Operations and is functionally directed by the Asset Management & Governance pillar, which develops and approves enterprise asset strategies and data standards. The Asset Manager applies those strategies at the campus, tailors them with a documented basis, drives the outcomes with Operations, and leads the campus asset management team.

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. Responsibilities Asset Lifecycle & Registry — own lifecycle management of all infrastructure assets from commissioning and handover through operation, modification, renewal and disposal; maintain the asset registry in the CMMS as the controlled source of truth (hierarchy, parent/child, tags, manufacturer, model, serial, capacity, location, lifecycle records) and be accountable that every asset is accounted for; govern data quality, naming conventions and taxonomy to the enterprise data standards. Governance, Audit & Evidence — lead and support internal and external audits of the asset base (registry accuracy, physical verification, PM compliance, critical spares, documentation) and own corrective-action closure; fulfil requests for evidence from customers, auditors and regulators (e.g., SOC 2 / ARA, insurer and compliance reviews) accurately and on time; work with the Inventory team to ensure cycle counts of critical spares are scheduled, conducted and reconciled to the registry. Change Management — support the Change Advisory Board (CAB): assess asset and criticality impact of proposed changes and ensure registry and documentation updates follow every approved change. Maintenance Strategy Application — apply the enterprise maintenance strategies and standards developed and approved by the Asset Management & Governance pillar at the campus; tailor them to local assets and conditions with a documented basis; propose deviations through the pillar's engineers for fit-for-purpose approval; and drive the outcomes delivered with Operations. Holds the campus technical accountability (TA2) for asset information, criticality and local strategy application: approves within set limits and escalates beyond them to the pillar's engineers. Criticality — maintain the campus asset criticality mapping (A–D grouping) under the enterprise criticality model, keeping it aligned to redundancy, consequence and SLA exposure, and feeding changes back to the pillar. Planning & Reliability Counterpart — act as the counterpart to the Planning & Reliability Manager and the conduit between the campus and the Asset Management & Governance pillar: bring approved strategies and data standards to Planning & Scheduling, who plan and schedule the work; take execution results and bad actors back to the pillar.
