Alpine has promoted former chassis technical director Pat Fry to the role of Chief Technical Officer, while former engineering director Matt Herman has been named as the team's new Technical Director.
Fry who joined Alpine in 2020 will oversee all technical activities in Enstone, and will be responsible for setting the performance target of the car as well as defining the technical capabilities and competencies needed by the French outfit.
The British engineer will also "arbitrate on major performance trade-offs and risks" and set the team's long term development strategy.
As Alpine's new technical director, Matt Herman will take responsibility for delivering performance and experiments to the track, but the Briton's background as Power Unit engineer will help strengthen the link to Renault's engine department at Viry-Chatillon and further optimise PU integration.
Alpine says its management changes are part of a reorganization initiated in November 2021 and designed to maximise the team's performance.
"We are considerably strengthening Alpine F1 Team by having Pat and Matt at the helm of Engineering in Enstone," commented Alpien chief executive Laurent Rossi.
"Pat is one of the most experienced engineers in Formula 1, while Matt’s drive and expertise will prove critical in extracting the full potential of our race cars, thanks in particular to his unique expertise combining chassis and engine development."
While strengthening its engineering structure, Alpine has yet to appoint a new team principal following the recent departure of executive director Marcin Budkowski, with former Aston Martin team boss Otmar Szafnauer still expected to join the Enstone squad.
Alpine is scheduled to present its new 2022 car on February 21, two days ahead of the start of pre-season in Barcelona.
