Sr. Director, Engineering Systems- Data Center Infra

This leader will build the engineering operating model that defines how OCI develops, validates,

and scales new infrastructure technologies from concept through global fleet deployment. The

organization will establish the systems and governance supporting generational design

development, technology roadmap integration, Basis of Design (BOD) management, new

product introduction (NPI), engineering change management, first-of-a-kind (FOAK) validation,

commissioning standardization, and continuous engineering improvement across OCI''s global

data center portfolio.

A key responsibility of this organization will be translating OCI''s evolving compute, networking,

and AI infrastructure roadmaps into scalable facility engineering solutions. Working closely with

Hardware and Architecture teams, the team will assess the impact of next-generation rack

platforms, power densities, cooling technologies, and emerging infrastructure requirements on

mechanical, electrical, plumbing, structural, and controls systems. The organization will ensure

new technologies are evaluated through structured engineering reviews, comprehensive

validation strategies, and phased deployment processes before fleet-wide adoption.

This leader will establish repeatable engineering systems that ensure infrastructure designs,

products, and engineering changes are technically sound, operationally validated, and scalable

across OCI''s global footprint. The organization will develop standardized engineering processes

for technology introduction, engineering change control, design maturity, configuration

management, commissioning, and operational handoff while ensuring engineering decisions are

documented, traceable, and consistently implemented across regions.

The role will drive cross-functional alignment, balancing innovation with standardization to

accelerate deployment velocity while maintaining engineering rigor, operational readiness, and

lifecycle performance.

The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in engineering operations, critical infrastructure

development, and technical program and product leadership with a proven track record of

building organizations, establishing scalable engineering processes, and leading complex cross-

functional initiatives in hyperscale, cloud, semiconductor, or other mission-critical environments.
