• Build and lead OCI's Owner's Design Engineering organization supporting developer-led GW-scale infrastructure projects.
• Serve as OCI's engineering authority for third-party facility designs throughout the project lifecycle.
• Develop engineering review processes that ensure infrastructure designs meet OCI's Basis of Design (BOD), engineering standards, operational requirements, and long-term infrastructure strategy.
• Establish multidisciplinary engineering teams spanning mechanical, electrical, plumbing, structural, controls, and integrated systems engineering.
• Develop standardized engineering review procedures, technical acceptance criteria, and engineering sign-off processes across OCI's global development portfolio.

• Lead comprehensive engineering reviews of developer-produced design packages through all phases of design.
• Validate compliance with OCI engineering specifications, design standards, operational requirements, resiliency objectives, maintainability expectations, and lifecycle performance criteria.
• Evaluate engineering calculations, equipment selections, system architectures, controls philosophies, redundancy strategies, and integrated system performance.
• Identify technical risks, design deficiencies, constructability concerns, and operational impacts early in the design process.
• Work collaboratively with developers, architects, engineers of record, and consultants to resolve technical issues while maintaining project schedules.

• Ensure developer designs remain aligned with OCI's Basis of Design throughout project execution.
• Review engineering deviations, design exceptions, and value engineering proposals for technical and operational impact.
• Validate implementation of OCI engineering standards across mechanical, electrical, plumbing, controls, fire protection, and supporting infrastructure systems.
• Ensure engineering decisions maintain consistency with OCI's global infrastructure platform while supporting regional code and regulatory requirements.

• Partner with Construction and Capacity Delivery to provide engineering support throughout project execution.
• Evaluate field engineering issues, Requests for Information (RFIs), submittals, and proposed design modifications.
• Validate that construction changes maintain engineering intent and continue to satisfy OCI technical requirements.
• Provide engineering leadership supporting issue resolution during construction and startup activities.
• Participate in design coordination meetings with developers, contractors, and engineering consultants.

• Partner with Commissioning teams to ensure systems are tested against OCI performance expectations.
• Review commissioning plans, integrated systems testing, functional testing, and acceptance criteria.
• Validate engineering readiness prior to rack deployment and operational turnover.
• Support technical issue resolution during startup, commissioning, and early operations.
• Ensure commissioning findings are incorporated into future engineering standards and design guidance.

• Develop engineering risk assessment methodologies for developer-led projects.
• Identify technical, operational, schedule, and lifecycle risks throughout the design process.
• Drive mitigation strategies with developers and engineering partners.
• Provide executive reporting on engineering readiness, technical risks, design maturity, and project status.
• Establish engineering metrics measuring design quality, compliance, issue resolution, and technical performance across the portfolio.

• Ensure OCI engineering standards continue to evolve based on deployment experience.
• Work with Infrastructure Engineering, Construction, Capacity Delivery, Commissioning, Supply Chain, and Operations to ensure engineering continuity throughout the project lifecycle.
• Represent OCI Engineering during executive design reviews, project governance meetings, and strategic…
