From the frontline of data center builds to navigating office moves across continents, my journey has been anything but mundane. I've had my share of adventures, like the time in South America when a local riot nearly upended our moving day. Despite the chaos, we managed to get everything safely to the new site. That's hands-on experience redefined!
Just this week, I was reminded of the thrill of being deeply involved in IT infrastructures when a recruiter asked if I'm hands-on. Well, when you've personally racked blade centers, you understand the weight of responsibility—quite literally!
And speaking of state-of-the-art facilities, Google's latest £1 billion investment in a new UK data center at the top of the M25 is the kind of project that gets my heart racing. A new, clean data center, with perfect racking and meticulous cabling, is a sight to behold and a testament to future-forward tech landscapes.
There's an art to creating these tech havens, and I relish every moment. For those looking to build or transition to such facilities, I bring a blend of strategic oversight and the willingness to roll up my sleeves—because the best leaders are never too far from the action.
