- Credibility with technicians and contractors, with a consistent focus on accountability and follow-through
Leadership Profile

- Safety, compliance, and documentation standards are visible in day-to-day execution
- Maintenance, upgrades, and lifecycle work are executed without creating avoidable risk

Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Facilities, or related field, or equivalent experience
- 7+ years in mission-critical facilities, data center infrastructure, or similar environments
- 3+ years of leadership experience over infrastructure, facilities, or skilled technical teams
