Mike Cornelia

Data center operations Director. Over a decade at hyperscale.
Building and operating infrastructure at gigawatt scale.

I lead data center operations for one of the largest AI infrastructure fleets in the world — multiple campuses across the Southeast and beyond, supporting a significant share of the company’s AI compute and power capacity.

Before that, I spent a decade in IT infrastructure, building systems from the ground up for organizations that needed things to just work.

The problems I’m most focused on: scaling operations through the double-digit gigawatt mark, putting AI to work in infrastructure — not just talking about it — and solving the workforce gap the industry isn’t addressing.
