Nandini Ramani joins New Relic as Chief Executive Officer

New Relic has appointed Nandini Ramani as Chief Executive Officer and a member of its Board of Directors, adding an experienced technology leader with a background spanning observability, AIOps, engineering, cloud infrastructure and product strategy.

Nandini joins New Relic from Amazon Web Services, where she most recently led a core portfolio spanning observability, search and compliance services.

Her appointment comes as observability becomes increasingly important to organisations managing complex cloud, application and AI-driven technology environments.

Bringing deep observability experience to New Relic

At AWS, Nandini drove innovation across AIOps, including analytics, search and observability.

That experience gives her a direct connection to the technology category at the centre of New Relic's business.

As organisations operate increasingly distributed applications and infrastructure, observability has evolved from monitoring individual systems toward providing broader visibility into application performance, infrastructure, user experiences and the relationships between them.

Nandini's background places her close to that evolution.

From AWS to New Relic

Nandini's most recent role at AWS followed a career spanning several major technology organisations.

Before AWS, she served as Chief Operating Officer at Outcome Health, where she led revenue, product and operations.

Earlier, she was a Vice President at Twitter, where she was responsible for engineering effectiveness across the company's technical organisation while also leading product strategy for emerging markets, with a particular focus on India.

Her career also includes senior leadership at Oracle, where she held end-to-end ownership of Java and led the company's Internet of Things platform strategy.

A career across engineering and enterprise technology

Nandini began her technology leadership career at Sun Microsystems, where she held a variety of senior management roles.

Across these positions, her experience has combined engineering, product, infrastructure, operations and business leadership.

That breadth becomes particularly relevant for a CEO role at a company operating in observability, where technology depth and an understanding of enterprise customer requirements increasingly intersect.

Accelerating New Relic's observability leadership

In welcoming Nandini, New Relic highlighted her experience in observability, search and compliance services at AWS.

Nandini said her focus will be on accelerating New Relic's leadership in the observability space and delivering value to customers.

Her appointment therefore places an experienced technology executive at the helm as New Relic continues to compete in a market shaped by cloud complexity, AI adoption and the growing need for real-time visibility across digital environments.

Observability in an increasingly complex technology environment

The role of observability continues to expand as enterprises manage applications and infrastructure across multiple clouds, services and increasingly AI-enabled workloads.

For technology teams, understanding what is happening across these environments is closely connected to reliability, performance and customer experience.

New Relic's platform is positioned around helping organisations monitor and understand these digital environments, making the company's technology focus closely aligned with Nandini's recent experience.

A new chapter for New Relic

Nandini's appointment brings together her experience across AWS, Oracle, Twitter, Sun Microsystems and Outcome Health with New Relic's focus on observability.

Her combination of engineering, product, operations and AIOps experience gives the company a CEO with a broad technology background as it looks to strengthen its position in the observability market.

For New Relic, the appointment marks the beginning of a new leadership chapter focused on technology innovation, customer value and continued growth in observability.
