We are looking for a Principal Modern Planner to own demand planning and forecasting for networking hardware supporting large-scale cloud data center builds and expansions.
This role will connect data center build plans, network architecture, product roadmaps, engineering changes, BOMs, and historical demand to a long-range view of hardware requirements. The planner will work across Networking Engineering, Network Architecture, Data Center Planning, Product, Supply Chain, Procurement, Finance, and Data/Analytics to understand the underlying demand drivers, reconcile different inputs, and improve the quality and consistency of the demand plan.
The role also has a strong analytics and data component. The successful candidate will use forecasting, statistical analysis, data modeling, automation, and AI/ML to improve planning processes, identify issues in the demand signal, and provide better visibility into future capacity and supply requirements.
This is a hands-on Principal role for someone who can move between planning strategy, detailed data analysis, and networking hardware fundamentals, and who can work effectively with both technical teams and senior leadership.
