The AI Infrastructure, Demand & Supply Planner owns the strategy, structure, and governance of Planning for IREN's AI infrastructure and data center supply chain, and ensures that finance, procurement, inventory, quality, cost, project, and site data describe the same materials, suppliers, and locations in the same way.

We believe that human progress is invaluable, but it should be done in the right way - responsibly, sustainably and having a positive impact on the communities we operate in.
We are seeking a highly analytical and proactive Demand and Supply Planner to optimize the end-to-end supply chain for our large-scale data center construction and deployment projects. In this role, you will bridge the gap between long-range data center capacity forecasts and physical execution. You will be responsible for ensuring that critical infrastructure - including cooling systems, power distribution units, generators, and network racks - arrives at project sites precisely when needed, minimizing lead times and eliminating construction delays.
Responsibilities
Demand Forecasting & Capacity Alignment

Supply Planning & Constraint Management
- Convert demand forecasts into executable supply plans, allocating manufacturing build slots with Original Design Manufacturers (ODMs) and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
- Manage component-level allocations for long-lead items (e.g., chillers, transformers, switchgear, generators) against market constraints and raw material availability.
- Assess "clean-to-build" readiness across multi-million dollar bills of materials (BOMs) to identify gaps before construction begins.
Logistics & Execution Coordination
- Coordinate inbound equipment flows with logistics teams, managing delivery schedules directly to project sites or staging hubs.
- Mitigate supply chain disruptions by driving active resolution strategies when supplier lead times or logistics bottlenecks conflict with project deadlines.
- Oversee inventory optimization parameters for regional staging warehouses to balance capital efficiency against deployment risk.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Supply Chain Management, Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field; MBA or advanced degree preferred.
- 5+ years of progressive experience in S&OP, demand planning, supply planning, spares planning, PLM/MDM, data governance, or enterprise data architecture for construction planning, Supply Chain, ideally at a hyperscaler, cloud provider, OEM/ODM, or AI infrastructure company.
- Proven experience designing data models and domains (material/part, supplier, customer, BOM, site/project, cost center, and chart-of-accounts mappings), including hierarchies, taxonomies, attributes, and lifecycle rules.
- Practical understanding of how master data flows between ERP, PLM, procurement/P2P, quality (QMS), inventory and warehouse, finance, and project-controls systems, and of the integration patterns (APIs, middleware, extracts, CDC, event-based) used to keep them in sync.
- Hands-on experience with supply chain tooling and with ERP master data (SAP ECC, S/4HANA, Oracle and SCP tools (Kinaxis, SAP IBP, Oracle Fusion DP/SP, JDA etc)
- Experience partnering with cross-functional planning with Finance, procurement, quality, and Commercial teams
