The artificial intelligence company appointed its chief technology officer for compute, Uday Ruddarraju, to head both the infrastructure and compute businesses. The previous head of the infrastructure unit, Sachin Katti, will transition out of that role and remain an advisor, according to the report.

Ruddarraju, a former xAI executive, joined OpenAI in 2025 and became CTO for compute in July, the report said.

“Sachin has done an incredible job maintaining the commercial partnerships,” Ruddarraju told Bloomberg in an interview. Now, he said, “I have to spend more time on the commercial side.”

Katti said in a Wednesday post on LinkedIn that he’s decided to move on to build something new, that his last day at OpenAI will be Nov. 15 and that he will remain an advisor to the company after that.

“The past year has been extraordinary,” Katti said. “We secured double-digit gigawatts of new compute capacity across Ohio, Portsmouth, Georgia, Trainium and several other projects, working with incredible partners including Nvidia, Broadcom, AMD, Oracle, Microsoft, Google, AWS, Cerebras and Coreweave.
