Principal, Strategic Transformation & Operations

Everpure (NYSE: P) has evolved from storage pioneer to data platform, closing fiscal 2026 with $3.7 billion in revenue, its first billion-dollar quarter, and accelerating growth into FY27. Our strategic agenda spans the companies defining the next era of technology - hyperscalers, AI labs, the AI hardware supply chain, data platform providers, and the broader AI ecosystem.

This type of work - work that changes the world - is what the tech industry was founded on. So, if you're ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark, come join us.

THE ROLE

As the Principal of Strategic Transformation & Operations, you will serve as the chief initiative architect tackling high-stakes, enterprise-wide challenges that span organizational boundaries. Operating at an IC-Director level, you will partner directly with C-suite and executive leadership across Strategy, Product, Operations, Finance, and Go-to-Market to turn complex operating and growth barriers into fact-based choices, scalable designs, and measurable business outcomes. You will own the full transformation lifecycle on the Everpure Platform - from root-cause diagnosis to hands-on execution and seamless operational handoff.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Architect & Execute Enterprise Transformations: Exercise wide latitude to lead high-stakes cross-functional interventions - spanning value architecture, monetization models, quote-to-cash, and operating model redesign - driving initiatives from initial ambiguity through durable business handoff.

• Engineer Decision-Grade Business Cases & Economics: Formulate comprehensive value pools, scenario models, ROI analyses, and investment requirements in close partnership with Finance and operational teams to quantify value-at-stake and establish clear executive decision criteria.

• Mobilize Cross-Functional Execution Networks: Establish robust governance frameworks (including DACI models), secure functional resource commitments, and align executive leaders across Product, Operations, and GTM around unified milestones, phase gates, and delivery sequences.

• Direct Target Operating State Design & Systems Mapping: Map complex end-to-end workflows, data dependencies, and system failure modes to design the most viable, durable interventions across governance, process, systems, and incentives.

• Measure Value Realization & Institutionalize Change: Define executive KPI hierarchies, leading indicators, and adoption baselines to track outcomes, ensuring receiving business units fully operationalize metric ownership, controls, and ongoing management before transition.

• We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore, you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara, CA office in compliance with Everpure's policies, unless you are on PTO, or work travel, or other approved leave.

WHAT YOU BRING

• Strategic Transformation & Operating Mastery: Extensive expertise architecting and delivering complex, high-visibility business transformation, corporate strategy, or operational redesign initiatives with sustained business impact across multi-functional enterprise technology ecosystems.

• Advanced Financial & Commercialization Acumen: Deep capability in developing decision-grade business cases, valuation frameworks, ROI modeling, and commercialization strategies spanning packaging, pricing, enterprise agreements, and monetization models.

• End-to-End Systems & Process Fluency: Demonstrated skill in diagnosing root-cause organizational, process, data, and system bottlenecks, with the ability to architect targeted operating models and align organizational incentives.

• Executive Influence & Network Building: Outstanding stakeholder leadership and negotiation skills, with a proven ability to build formal networks, challenge prevailing assumptions, and gain executive alignment across distributed authority structures without compromising relationships.
