Senior Principal Technical Program Manager

** Job Description*
* OCI is scaling rapidly, expanding our global data center footprint and accelerating delivery of GPU capacity.

We are hiring an IC5 Technical Program Manager on a central execution team that owns end-to-end

delivery from construction start through commissioning and GPU/cluster handover to operations.

In this role, you will lead complex, cross-functional infrastructure programs spanning construction,

facilities, network, hardware, power/thermal, security, supply chain, and operations. The TPM will drive

discipline, transparency, and speed through standardized mechanisms (templates, playbooks,

dashboards), single-source-of-truth schedules anchored to Need-By-Dates (NBD), SLA-based execution,

and end-to-end risk visibility across all work streams and regions. This role partners daily with Construction,

Network Design, Data Hall Design, Procurement/HOM, Fitout, Energization, Ingestion, Validation, and

regional build teams to ensure programs launch with no gaps, risks are surfaced early, blockers are

removed quickly, and leadership has clear visibility into status and decisions.

** What You'll Do*
* · Own end-to-end delivery for data center build and fit-out programs, from construction execution

through readiness, commissioning, and GPU infrastructure handover.

· Lead cross-functional teams through requirements, integrated schedule, milestone

management, dependency tracking, and change control.

· Drive alignment across Construction, Engineering, Network, Hardware/GPU, Facilities, Security,

Capacity, Supply Chain/Procurement, and Operations.

· Establish and run program mechanisms: weekly execution reviews, risk/issue management,

decision logs, action tracking, launch/readiness gates, and executive reporting.

· Manage critical-path planning and unblock constraints (e.g., long-lead materials, commissioning

readiness, design changes, site constraints, vendor performance).

· Ensure operational readiness for handover: documentation, runbooks, acceptance criteria,

testing/validation, and clear ownership transitions.

· Provide clear, timely communication to senior leadership on status, risks, tradeoffs, and

recommended options-especially when timelines or scope are at risk.

** Responsibilities*
* ** Key Responsibilities*
* · Lead large, ambiguous, global infrastructure programs and break them into durable plans with

measurable milestones and clear owners.

· Build and maintain integrated end-to-end schedules that connect construction progress to

commissioning and GPU/cluster readiness.

· Identify risks early (schedule, capacity, supply chain, vendor, technical readiness) and drive

mitigations to closure.

· Drive cross-team execution across time zones; influence without authority and align teams on

priorities and tradeoffs.

· Implement scalable delivery mechanisms (templates, checklists, gating criteria, dashboards) to

increase execution speed and consistency across regions.

· Coordinate internal and external stakeholders, including vendors and domain experts, to deliver

on commitments.

** Minimum Qualifications*
* · 10+ years of experience in Technical Program Management, Infrastructure Program Management,

Construction Program Management, or similar roles delivering complex cross-functional

programs.

· Demonstrated experience running end-to-end execution with strong rigor in schedule,

dependencies, risk management, and stakeholder alignment.

· Ability to communicate effectively with technical and non-technical audiences, including senior

leadership, with crisp written and verbal updates.

· Proven track record operating in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and driving outcomes

across multiple teams.

** Preferred Qualifications*
* · Experience delivering data center / hyperscale / mission-critical infrastructure programs

(construction execution through commissioning/handover).

· Familiarity with GPU/compute infrastructure readiness concepts (power/thermal constraints,

rack/row readiness, network bring-up, burn-in/testing, acceptance gates).

· Experience with global programs across multiple regions, vendors, and time zones.

· Strong program controls experience (critical path management, change control, readiness gating,

vendor coordination).
