About Andrew Taylor
Experienced Data Center Design Leader | Director of Data Center Development at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure | Champion of Innovation and Technical ExcellenceWith over a decade of experience in the data center industry, I lead design management and development efforts at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, driving the creation of next-generation, cloud-scale, AI-ready campuses around the world. I’m currently focused on delivering OCI’s largest and most ambitious projects to date; global, gigawatt-scale developments that are redefining the standards for speed, scalability, and sustainability in the data center industry.My journey began with a thesis at the Savannah College of Art and Design titled “Data Center: The Interconnected Storage Hub” a project that sparked my lifelong passion for mission-critical design. Since then, I’ve helped deliver more than 12 million square feet of data center space, from hyperscale campuses to high-performance modular deployments.Previously at QTS, I led the Freedom Standards program and drove enterprise-wide design standardization and innovation. Today at Oracle, I continue that momentum, guiding complex programs from vision through execution and partnering with world-class engineering, construction, and operations teams to deliver efficient, resilient, and future-ready infrastructure that powers the cloud’s most demanding workloads.
