• Lead EPC procurement activities, including development of scopes of work, technical requirements, commercial evaluation, bid processes, negotiations, and contractor selection.
• Establish appropriate risk allocation across Oracle, EPC contractors, equipment manufacturers, utilities, and specialty subcontractors.
• Manage EPC contracts through engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning, energization, and closeout.
• Oversee EPC contractor performance against schedule, budget, technical requirements, quality, safety, and contractual commitments.
• Review and negotiate change orders, claims, allowances, contingencies, schedule impacts, and commercial settlements.
• Establish governance and reporting mechanisms that provide senior leadership with clear visibility into EPC cost, schedule, risk, and performance.
• Partner with Legal, Procurement, Finance, and Engineering to ensure EPC agreements support OCI’s long-term delivery and operational objectives.
• Develop repeatable EPC delivery models that can be scaled across multiple data center campuses and regions.

On-Site Generation & Fuel Cells

• Lead the delivery strategy for on-site power generation, including fuel-cell-based generation and other distributed energy solutions.
• Provide executive oversight for the deployment of fuel-cell systems supporting OCI data center capacity where applicable.
• Coordinate with OEM and other technology providers with electrical engineering, EPC, utility, construction, commissioning, and operations teams.
• Ensure fuel-cell systems are appropriately integrated with utility services, medium- and high-voltage infrastructure, switchgear, protection systems, controls, monitoring, and data center electrical distribution.
• Oversee technical and commercial interfaces between Oracle, Fuel Cell providers, EPC contractors, utilities, and equipment suppliers.
• Establish deployment standards, delivery schedules, acceptance requirements, and operational readiness criteria for fuel-cell installations.
• Manage site-specific challenges associated with fuel supply, interconnection, permitting, equipment delivery, installation, testing, commissioning, and long-term maintainability.
• Ensure fuel-cell systems are fully tested, commissioned, documented, and integrated into the overall campus operating model before operational handover.
• Evaluate opportunities to standardize and scale fuel-cell deployment across OCI’s expanding data center portfolio.
• Support business-case development and capacity planning for on-site generation solutions supporting accelerated AI and cloud infrastructure growth.
