Prior to joining Oracle, Maxson served as Executive Vice President and Group Chief Financial Officer at Schneider Electric, a global leader in electrification, automation, and digitalization with more than $45 billion in annual revenue. Since joining Schneider Electric in 2017, the organization has transformed from an electrical equipment supplier into a digital energy technology partner for key segments, like utilities and datacenters

Yup, there it is. For her industry contacts for getting power for datacenters. Not enough electricity to go around any more, Oracle needs people with connections in high positions.
