Former xAI executive Uday Ruddarraju takes over OpenAI's infrastructure and compute businesses as projected compute spending climbs to approximately $750 billion through 2030 OpenAI is changing who runs its infrastructure, again. Sachin Katti, the executive who arrived from Intel in November 2025 to lead the company’s large-scale data center projects, is stepping down from his operational role. He isn’t leaving entirely. Katti will move into an advisory position after November 15, 2026. That means the person who helped steer projects including Stargate will soon be offering guidance rather than signing off on construction plans.
