Position Summary The Manager, Carrier Partnerships & Infrastructure Contracts serves as the day-to-day operations manager behind Gigapower's wholesale and carrier infrastructure business, reporting to the Head of Strategic Growth. This role helps assess and sell new network access opportunities across Gigapower and partner networks, supports expansion into the enterprise Ethernet business, manages the ABF pilot day to day through its transition to business as usual, owns the cell site database, and supports contract tracking. The role spans four workstreams: carrier backhaul opportunity management, the AT&T and Forge partnership, the ABF pilot and enterprise Ethernet certification and opportunity, and contract tracking and coordination. This role does no legal work. Key Responsibilities Build and maintain the site opportunity inventory once partner footprint and site data are released, covering towers, small cells, and macro sites within reach of Gigapower's fiber and the partner network, and own the cell site database.
