The Institute of Foundation Models (IFM) at MBZUAI is building and operating large-scale GPU clusters supporting cutting-edge AI model training and research. We are seeking a highly organized and execution-oriented Project Manager to support the HPC function.

This role will work closely with the HPC Lead to drive infrastructure projects end-to-end — coordinating vendors, internal university departments (IT, procurement, compliance, finance), and research stakeholders — while ensuring documentation, governance, and delivery tracking are properly maintained.


Key Responsibilities
  • Support planning and delivery of HPC infrastructure projects (GPU clusters, storage, networking, upgrades).
  • Coordinate with external vendors (hardware providers, cloud partners, data center operators).
  • Track project milestones, risks, dependencies, and timelines.
  • Maintain project plans, logs, and status reports.
  • Organize and document project meetings and action items.
  • Maintain structured visibility of all major workloads and projects running on IFM clusters.
  • Track cluster allocation, major initiatives, and priority programs supported by HPC.
  • Build and maintain strong working relationships with IFM research teams and project owners.
  • Act as a coordination bridge to ensure key IFM projects receive proper infrastructure support.
  • Proactively identify risks impacting critical research timelines and escalate where needed.
  • Act as liaison between HPC team and University IT, Procurement, Finance, Legal, Compliance, and HR.
  • Ensure requirements are clearly documented and aligned across stakeholders.
  • Proactively follow up to remove blockers and maintain project momentum.
  • Maintain structured documentation of cluster specifications, contracts, SLAs, and change logs.
  • Support governance processes (SteerCo tracking, review cadences).
  • Assist with audit preparation and documentation consolidation.
  • Assist with export control governance tracking and vendor compliance.
  • Support access control and user approval coordination with IT.
  • Track risk mitigation and regulatory documentation requirements
  • Prepare concise leadership updates and executive summaries.
  • Develop slide decks and structured status reports.
  • Maintain dashboards for project status, budget tracking, and vendor performance.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Business, or a related field (required).
  • Master’s degree (MBA, Engineering, Technology Management, or related discipline) preferred.
  • 5+ years of experience in Project Management.
  • Experience in technical or infrastructure projects.
  • Strong organizational and documentation skills.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally in a complex organization.
