Technology enthusiast and decade-long data center specialist Eric Closson has empowered campus-scale critical infrastructure design projects for a host of major hyperscalers and colocation providers.
Today, as Stream’s Senior Design Manager, Eric applies this hyperscale expertise to his management of several key campuses in major metros like Phoenix and Dallas Fort Worth.
As the conduit between design, construction and development teams, Eric ensures priorities are met on time and with the utmost quality, acknowledging that no two projects or teams are the same and ensuring teams and processes align with the nuances each design brings.
To support customer goals, he draws on lessons learned across collaborations with clients, engineering partners, contractors, local authorities, equipment vendors and beyond. For Eric, realizing advanced data center designs means filling the right gaps at the right time with the right expertise — and maintaining a sense of curiosity, never being afraid to dig deeper or ask ‘why’ and prioritizing Stream’s commitment to remaining honest, nice, smart and passionate.
