Sr. Manager, Capacity Planning

About the Role

This role owns the intersection of customer demand and compute supply: forecasting how much capacity we need, deciding which products/services get allocated capacity, and building the systems to make those decisions repeatable. You will work across GTM, Strategic Finance, and Infrastructure Engineering to turn demand planning into a structured, data-driven function, directly impacting revenue per GPU and how efficiently we scale our compute fleet.

Responsibilities

• Run demand forecasting in partnership with GTM and Strategic Finance, translating customer pipeline and usage data into the capacity signals that drive supply planning decisions


• Create demand planning model based on existing utilization and growth metrics


• Define Supply Plan to deliver on demand forecast


• Partner with Strategic Finance on capital allocation inputs, providing the demand and utilization data that informs capacity investment decisions and revenue modeling


• Own capacity allocation decisions, matching demand to available compute resources and making trade-off recommendations 


• Design and build allocation tooling and dashboards, defining requirements, working with engineering or using low-code tools to automate tracking of customer commitments, capacity utilization, and reallocation workflows


• Define and maintain capacity health metrics (fleet utilization, revenue per GPU, committed vs. available capacity) and reporting that gives leadership and GTM visibility into allocation status and risks

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in capacity planning, demand planning, revenue operations, supply chain or infrastructure strategy within cloud, AI/ML, or a high-growth technology environment, with a track record of building or scaling a planning function


• Experience partnering with GTM teams to translate pipeline and usage data into capacity or supply planning decisions


• Strong quantitative skills: able to build and own forecasting models, utilization analyses, and scenario planning frameworks in SQL and spreadsheets; Python is a plus


• Experience designing or improving operational workflows such as allocation systems, intake processes, or cross-functional planning cadences


• Ability to synthesize competing inputs (customer commitments, infrastructure timelines, financial targets) into clear allocation recommendations under constraints


• Ability to drive alignment across engineering, finance, and go-to-market stakeholders


• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex trade-offs clearly to senior leadership

Nice to Have

• Experience at a cloud provider, AI infrastructure company, or hyperscaler working on capacity allocation, fleet planning, or compute economics


• Experience running or contributing to a deal desk process, including capacity checks, pricing approvals, or custom configuration reviews


• Familiarity with GPU workload characteristics (training vs. inference, model size, throughput/latency trade-offs) and how they influence resource planning


• Background in building dashboards or lightweight tooling to operationalize planning workflows
