In this episode we speak with Ben Gliwa, Vice President of Engineering and Asset Management at Bulk Infrastructure.
Ben shares his journey from mechanical engineering in Australia to leading operations and engineering teams across Europe, including roles at AWS and Equinix. He explains how his background in utilities shaped his approach to managing large-scale, mission-critical infrastructure.
The conversation explores how the data centre sector is evolving, driven by AI, higher compute density, and rapid deployment demands. Ben breaks down the shift from traditional air-cooled environments to complex liquid cooling systems, and why mechanical, electrical, and controls engineering are becoming more critical than ever.
