Jeremy Mickler has joined OpenAI's growing internal data center team to support its Stargate buildout. Mickler spent nearly ten years at Equinix, most recently as the design director of the global design and construction team.

"This transition comes with tremendous gratitude — for the people, challenges, growth, and shared belief in pushing our industry forward that brought me to this moment," Mickler said.

"In this new role, I’m energized by the opportunity to help shape where and how the next generation of GPU-scale data centers come to life. Land development is where vision meets reality, and the choices we make today will influence communities, infrastructure, and possibility for years to come. It’s meaningful work, and I’m proud to step into it."
