As OCI expands into larger, more complex regions, NRB is looking for a Principal Technical Program Manager (IC4) who can drive execution across engineering, operations, construction, automation, and executive stakeholders.

This role is ideal for a TPM who thrives in fast-moving environments, leads through influence, brings technical depth, and can orchestrate large-scale infrastructure programs with clarity and precision.

The Principal TPM will own end-to-end delivery for one or more commercial region builds. You will define program structure, drive execution across cross-functional teams, anticipate risks, manage milestones, and ensure technical decisions align with broader architectural and operational goals.

You will partner closely with Region Builds, Multi-cloud, Network Engineering, Datacenter Engineering, Optical Transport, Automation, and Program teams to deliver high-quality, on-time regions that meet OCI’s reliability, performance, and compliance standards.

This role demands high ownership, strong technical grounding in networking or infrastructure, and the ability to influence at Director/VP levels while working hands-on with engineering teams.

Program Leadership & Strategy

Lead complex, cross-functional region build programs from concept to launch.
Establish program frameworks, roadmaps, and communication mechanisms aligned with OCI delivery standards.
Define and drive critical path, dependencies, and risk mitigation across engineering and operations.

Technical Collaboration & Architecture Execution

Translate region architectural designs into actionable program plans and execution milestones.
Partner with architects and engineering leaders to identify gaps, define requirements, and ensure build-ready designs.
Understand network fabrics, routing, transport, optical systems, automation pipelines, and datacenter infrastructure enough to drive effective conversations and unblock engineering teams.

Execution Excellence

Build and maintain integrated schedules spanning datacenters, supply chain, cabling, network engineering, and operational readiness.
Drive 24x7 delivery coordination during high-intensity phases, including escalations and incident communication.
Ensure deliverables meet operational excellence and launch-readiness requirements.

Cross-Organizational Leadership

Influence resourcing, prioritization, and scope across multiple VP orgs.
Manage senior leadership communication, providing clear, data-driven status, risks, and decisions.
Create repeatable processes and mechanisms to improve program velocity and predictability.

Operational Readiness & Launch

Ensure monitoring, runbooks, automation, dashboards, and escalation paths are in place for Day-0 launch.
Partner with NOC, Ops, and Engineering teams to ensure seamless handoff from build to operations.
