Rónán de Hooge leads technology strategy and execution for AVEVA’s Information Management business unit, reflecting the strategic importance of the PI System and related products in the company’s market-leading portfolio. He joined the executive leadership team as part of the AVEVA-OSIsoft integration in 2021.

As the son of an administrator who helped manage one of the first PI System deployments in Europe, you might say Rónán grew up with the technology. His own work as a process engineer in the mining industry led to an opportunity to join OSIsoft as a software developer in 2001.

He took on numerous leadership roles over his 20-year OSIsoft career, helping to drive the embrace of cloud computing, microservices architecture, agile development and a unique model of guild engineering that has fueled collaboration, transparency and innovation. He is a champion of diversity to improve equity, inclusion and better software, and in the power of data to drive a more sustainable future.

Rónán holds a B.Eng. in Chemical Engineering from University College, Dublin.
