Job Description
As Director of Building Automation, you will define and govern automation strategy for OCI’s global data center portfolio. This role sets standards and long-term direction for building management systems, OT controls architecture, cybersecurity, alarming, integration practices, and analytics that underpin safe, efficient, and scalable operations across the fleet.
You will lead managers, senior engineers, and strategic vendor partners responsible for automation platforms and standards across multiple regions. This role balances technical vision and execution discipline, ensuring OCI’s building automation ecosystem evolves in a consistent, secure, and operationally effective way as the business scales. You will partner across engineering, facilities, IT, security, construction, commissioning, and product teams to align standards, investment priorities, and system capabilities.

Responsibilities
Key Responsibilities
- Lead strategy, governance, and standards for BMS, DCIM, OT controls, and automation systems across OCI’s global portfolio.
- Define long-term controls architecture, alarm philosophy, OT network standards, naming conventions, integration requirements, and supportability expectations across multi-vendor environments.
- Oversee design, integration, commissioning, and operational handoff of major automation and controls initiatives across new sites, expansions, and retrofit programs.
- Establish cybersecurity requirements and governance for OT systems in partnership with IT and security teams, including segmentation, access control, remote support methods, device lifecycle management, and compliance practices.
- Drive adoption of smart building technologies, advanced analytics, visualization, digital-twin-related capabilities, and scalable automation practices that improve uptime, efficiency, and operational insight.
- Ensure building automation systems produce actionable data, high-quality alarms, and consistent control behavior that support both local operations and fleet-level visibility.
- Sponsor and govern root cause analysis, recurring issue elimination, and systemic improvement efforts related to controls, automation, integration, and OT reliability.
- Lead vendor strategy for automation partners, system integrators, controls contractors, and platform providers, including performance expectations, standardization, and long-term technical roadmap alignment.
- Build and develop technical leadership within the automation organization, including managers, senior engineers, and domain specialists.
- Influence portfolio planning, capital prioritization, and operating standards by identifying automation-related risks, obsolescence concerns, and strategic modernization opportunities.
- Align engineering, IT, cybersecurity, operations, and construction stakeholders around common automation standards, ownership models, and execution discipline.
Ideal Candidate Profile
- 5-8 + years of experience in controls engineering, building automation, industrial automation, OT systems, or mission-critical facility automation leadership; data center experience strongly preferred, though adjacent experience in semiconductor, pharmaceutical, utilities, advanced manufacturing, healthcare, or similarly uptime-critical environments is highly relevant.
- 5+ years of experience leading managers, engineering teams, or large-scale technical programs across multiple sites, regions, or business functions.
- Deep knowledge of BMS, SCADA, DCS, PLC, HMI, OT infrastructure, and multi-vendor controls environments.
- Strong experience setting technical standards, leading strategic automation programs, and governing execution across design, commissioning, operations, and vendor ecosystems.
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Controls Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, or related technical field preferred; advanced degree is a plus but not required.
Skills and Competencies
- Visionary technical leadership with strong execution discipline.
- Ability to align engineering, IT, cybersecurity, and operations around common standards and operating models.
- Strong judgment in balancing innovation, cybersecurity, reliability, maintainability, and cost.
- Executive-level communication skills with the ability to translate complex technical strategy into clear priorities and decisions.
- Strong organizational leadership, talent development, and cross-functional influence.
Preferred Skills / Certifications
- Deep expertise in BMS, SCADA, PLC, DCS, industrial networking, OT cybersecurity, alarming strategy, and large-scale automation integration.
- Familiarity with platforms and ecosystems such as Schneider Electric, Siemens, Rockwell, Ignition, Niagara, Johnson Controls, Honeywell, Cisco industrial networking, and related multi-vendor environments.
- Experience shaping OT cybersecurity programs or standards using frameworks such as IEC 62443, NIST 800-82, or equivalent industrial cybersecurity practices.
- Experience with fleet standardization, digital twin or advanced visualization initiatives, data integration, smart alarming, and automation analytics programs.
- Understanding of critical facility systems and the role automation plays across mechanical cooling, electrical infrastructure, EPMS, DCIM, and integrated operational response.
- Relevant certifications or training in BMS/controls platforms, industrial networking, OT cybersecurity, or automation leadership are a plus.
- Credentials such as Schneider Electric EcoXpert, Niagara certification, Ignition credentials, Rockwell certification/training, Cisco industrial networking certifications, or OT cybersecurity certifications are valuable where aligned to platform mix and scope.
