About the job

Requirements
  • A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Experience in technical program management, infrastructure operations, hardware engineering, data center operations, or enterprise software delivery.
  • A track record leading complex, cross-functional technical programs, rather than only contributing to them.
  • Strong vendor management and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to build structured project plans with clear milestones, dependencies, ownership, and success metrics.
  • Strong communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Working understanding of infrastructure architecture, operational workflows, and engineering trade-offs sufficient to ask sharp questions and challenge assumptions; building the systems is not required.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving ability.
  • Experience running multiple concurrent programs in a fast-paced, globally distributed environment.
  • Comfort driving accountability and progress when ownership is unclear or priorities conflict.
  • Professional proficiency in English.
Responsibilities
  • Set the operating model for working with server manufacturers, hardware vendors, and maintenance providers, including service expectations, ownership models, escalation paths, and performance metrics.
  • Run the cadence of business and operational reviews that hold vendors to performance metrics, and lead root cause analysis and corrective action plans when systemic hardware issues arise.
  • Drive vendors to resolve stalled repairs, quality issues, and service gaps rather than absorbing the work directly.
  • Partner with engineering, supply chain, and data center operations on spare-parts and repair-readiness planning.
  • Lead operational readiness planning for new server platforms, including high-density GPU systems.
  • Own the program plan for software supporting the server lifecycle, including provisioning, operating-system installation, firmware, hardware validation, monitoring, repair workflows, decommissioning, and data sanitization.
  • Translate operational pain points into scoped projects with milestones and acceptance criteria, and coordinate software engineers, production systems engineers, and platform teams delivering them.
  • Track progress, risk, and dependencies across the roadmap, run project reviews, and make decisions that unblock delivery when teams disagree on priorities.
  • Define metrics for automation coverage, ticket reduction, and deployment quality, and drive documentation, release-readiness, and handoff standards.
  • Help set the direction for adopting AI-assisted tooling in infrastructure operations.
  • Build and own execution plans for data center decommissioning, server migration, new site delivery, and hardware-reuse programs, coordinating engineering, operations, and vendor teams.
  • Structure plans for server relocation, asset retirement, and data-erasure workstreams across regions.
  • Lead urgent infrastructure initiatives when stronger program leadership is needed to unblock them.
Desired Qualifications
  • Experience with server manufacturers, hardware vendors, or third-party data center service providers.
  • Background in server fleet management, data center infrastructure, cloud infrastructure, or large-scale distributed systems.
  • Familiarity with server provisioning, Linux, firmware, baseboard management controller (BMC) management, hardware diagnostics, or break-fix operations; hands-on execution is not required.
  • Experience managing software or automation projects involving application programming interfaces (APIs), workflow platforms, or monitoring/infrastructure management tools.
  • Experience with GPU servers, high-density computing, or AI infrastructure programs.
  • Knowledge of hardware lifecycle processes, including new product introduction (NPI), deployment, maintenance, migration, decommissioning, sanitization, and reuse.
  • Experience defining operational key performance indicators (KPIs), service-level agreements (SLAs), and vendor scorecards.
  • Experience working across the United States, Europe, or other international regions.
  • Familiarity with Agile development, release processes, incident management, or change management.
  • Professional proficiency in Mandarin.

Cognizant acquires Astreya to scale AI infrastructure amid $6.7T data centre buildout

Cognizant has agreed to acquire Astreya, a global AI-first IT managed services provider based in San Jose, California, for an undisclosed sum. The transaction, expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, will expand Cognizant's AI infrastructure capabilities and strengthen its position as an "AI builder". Founded in 2001 and operating across over 35 countries, Astreya provides managed services to six of the "Magnificent Seven" hyperscalers. Its proprietary AI OpsHub platform and expertise in designing and managing AI infrastructure across the full value chain will complement Cognizant's existing capabilities. The acquisition comes amid a projected $6.7 trillion AI data centre infrastructure buildout between 2025 and 2030, with the five largest hyperscalers expected to spend nearly $700 billion on infrastructure in 2026 alone.

Cognizant to buy Astreya for about $600 million. Published 04/29/2026, 04:34 AM Updated 04/29/2026, 04:36 AM (C) Reuters. By Milana Vinn and Natalia Bueno Rebolledo April 29 (Reuters) - Cognizant Technology has agreed to buy Astreya, an IT services and technology provider focused on AI infrastructure and data center services, in a deal valued at around $600 million, the company told Reuters. The deal is expected to strengthen Cognizant's AI infrastructure capabilities, as companies ramp up spending on the technology that is reshaping industries. The deal, expected to close in the second quarter of 2026 pending regulatory approvals, is likely to be announced on Wednesday. Cognizant has benefited from enterprise clients accelerating AI integration and automation as they migrate workloads to the cloud. The company has expanded partnerships with Microsoft and AI startup Anthropic to stay ahead of rivals in a highly competitive industry. "By acquiring Astreya and its proprietary AI tooling and production-grade infrastructure platform, which is complementary to Cognizant's AI builder stack, we will be even better-positioned to help clients architect their platform-led AI systems and operationalise them at scale," Chief Executive Ravi Kumar S said. The Astreya deal builds on a recent run of acquisitions aimed at strengthening Cognizant's AI business. The company bought tech consulting firm 3Cloud in January to expand its Microsoft Azure capabilities and acquired digital engineering firm Belcan in 2024 for nearly $1.3 billion. Founded in 2001, Astreya has spent nearly a decade managing data center infrastructure, AI lab environments and enterprise networks for six of the so-called Magnificent Seven tech firms. Cognizant, valued at $26 billion, has lost more than a third of its market value this year, weighed down by a weak demand outlook for IT services and AI-driven deflation fears.
