What You’ll Do
The Quality Management function sits at the center of CoreWeave’s infrastructure delivery ecosystem, ensuring that products, systems, and supplier outputs meet defined technical, regulatory, and operational standards across a rapidly scaling data center portfolio. This team partners closely with Engineering, Strategic Sourcing, Manufacturing, Construction, and Operations to embed quality into every phase of the asset lifecycle — from design intent through factory build, site installation, and long-term operation. The role serves as a critical control point for risk reduction, performance consistency, and continuous improvement across high-value, mission-critical infrastructure.
Quality Strategy & Governance
- Define and maintain CoreWeave’s quality framework across suppliers, manufacturing partners, and field execution.
- Establish quality standards, acceptance criteria, and inspection plans aligned to engineering specifications and operational requirements.
- Own quality governance models, including escalation paths, corrective action processes, and executive reporting.
- Standardize core quality processes: NCR, deviation requests, corrective actions workflows and lessons learned mechanisms.
Supplier & Manufacturing Quality
- Lead supplier quality onboarding, qualification, and ongoing performance management for critical infrastructure vendors.
- Conduct supplier audits, FATs, and manufacturing readiness reviews to ensure conformance prior to shipment.
- Drive supplier corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) with measurable closure and sustained improvement.
- Partner with Strategic Sourcing and Engineering to incorporate quality requirements into RFPs, contracts, and Supplier Quality Agreements and documentation requirements.
Field Quality & Installation Readiness
- Partner with construction and commissioning teams to ensure equipment arrives complete, compliant, and installation-ready.
- Own Investigation and resolution of field quality issues including defects, non-conformances, installation deviations and missing documentation.
- Ensure lessons learned from field issues are systematically fed back into supplier requirements and RFPs.
Data Integrity, Metrics & Continuous Improvement
- Define and track quality KPIs such as First Pass Yield, Defect Rate, NCR closure time, and Supplier Quality Scorecards.
- Define and maintain accurate quality records within QMS, ERP, and project systems to enable traceability and audit readiness.
- Apply statistical analysis and root cause methodologies to identify systemic issues and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
- Build dashboards and operating rhythms to support OKR and metrics (quarterly/yearly quality business reviews)
About The Role
The Data Center OFCI Quality Manager owns end-to-end quality execution across supplier manufacturing, logistics, installation readiness, and operational handoff for mission-critical infrastructure assets. This role is accountable for preventing defects, reducing rework, and protecting schedule and cost by embedding quality early and consistently. You will act as the technical authority on quality standards, lead investigations into complex failures, and ensure corrective actions result in measurable improvement. Success in this role requires disciplined execution, strong technical judgment, and the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, high-stakes environments.
