The Principal Technical Program Manager leads complex Data Hall Design programs to ensure OCI capacity is delivered through coordinated execution plans across design, construction, networking, colocation, operations, supply chain, and automation workstreams. This role involves managing roadmaps, milestones, risk registers, and KPI dashboards while driving cross-functional teams to resolve blockers in structured cabling, fiber infrastructure, and low-voltage systems. The candidate will drive process excellence by implementing standardized design templates, change management mechanisms, and automated reporting tools to improve schedule predictability. Key responsibilities include aligning stakeholders on trade-offs and preparing executive updates regarding delivery status. Required expertise includes infrastructure delivery lifecycles, hyperscale datacenter construction, and physical networking. Preferred skills include familiarity with AutoCAD or Revit/BIM systems, as well as experience in global datacenter delivery and large-scale cloud infrastructure programs.
