Data Centre – Delivery Manager

Company Overview:

Radiant is redefining how AI infrastructure is built.

We design and operate AI-native cloud platforms engineered for sovereignty, performance, and scale. Our infrastructure powers GPU-native workloads, multi-tenant control planes, and high-performance AI systems designed for the most demanding environments.

We are not building a generic cloud. We are building purpose-built AI infrastructure - from powered land, to compute, to software.

As we scale our platform and expand our engineering organisation, we are looking for leaders who can build strong teams, uphold high standards, and deliver reliably at pace

This is a cross-functional role requiring strong technical, commercial, and project delivery capabilities, with exposure to executive stakeholders, colocation operators, utilities, OEMs, engineering firms, and construction partners.

What You'll Do

As part of our Data Centre Delivery team, you will help scale our global AI infrastructure footprint by supporting the acquisition, deployment, and delivery of high-performance data centre capacity. This role combines technical due diligence, project delivery, stakeholder management, and infrastructure deployment across colocation, fit-out, and development projects.

Key Responsibilities

Data Centre Due Diligence & Site Selection

• Support the evaluation and selection of colocation and powered land opportunities globally.

• Conduct technical due diligence covering power, cooling, connectivity, resilience, sustainability, and operational readiness.
