The Infrastructure and Network Operations Director will be responsible for overseeing the implementation, and management of infrastructure and networking technology in all of Costco's locations. This role will develop and execute strategies to ensure service reliability, security, and scalability. This role will collaborate with cross-functional teams to align solutions with business goals, manage vendor relationships, and stay current with emerging technologies to drive innovation in their area.
As the primary conduit between your employees and upper leadership, your role in communicating and modeling the values and guiding principles of our company culture is of vital importance. All members of IT Management should strive to consciously and consistently foster a culture of engagement, trust, and "open door" communication.
If you want to be a part of one of the worldwide BEST companies "to work for", simply apply and let your career be reimagined.
