HVAC explained by a data center engineer

"In the early 2000s, when I first set foot in this industry, bookstores were filled with nothing but books preaching 'principles.' While you actually need to see the forest in the field, those books were busy talking about the cell division of tree bark. In that state, I was dropped into the middle of the deserts in Qatar, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia, learning HVAC the hard way by 'hitting the ground running.' (The sweat I shed back then could have probably created an oasis.) Later, when I moved to a data center and sat as an interviewer, I was surprised to find that many applicants still couldn't see the 'forest,' just like I couldn't 10 years ago. Out of frustration, I thought, 'I might as well set the stage myself,' and that's how I created this course. This is a 'condensed practical summary' of everything I've realized through 17 years of hands-on experience. Don't struggle as I did; use this course as a 'cheat code' to level up with ease. I always welcome your curiosity. The Q&A board and my inbox are on 'infinite standby,' open 24 hours a day."

Hello
This is

"I have added the 'breadth' of data center operations to the 'depth' of plant HVAC construction."

Hello. I am an engineer who spent the last 16 years building plants in the scorching deserts of the Middle East (Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia) and is now keeping the heart of mechanical and fire protection systems beating in data centers that stay awake 24/7.

I have completed over 18 major projects while working at companies such as Hyundai Engineering & Construction, Equinix, and Empyrion Digital. From Emergency Shutdown (ESD) systems in oil and petrochemical plants to cutting-edge HVAC controls in data centers, the facilities I have worked on continue to perform their roles reliably across the globe.

But these days, the "control" target I am most passionate about is not machines, but "people." With the Fourth Industrial Revolution, data centers and high-tech facilities are increasing explosively, yet there is a severe shortage of "prepared engineers" to handle them. The thirst and regret I felt at job interviews led me down a different path. I told myself, "If they don't exist, I'll train them myself."

I am a working engineer and also an 'instructor' who has met 1,450 students on the global education platform Udemy. From field workers in the desert to colleagues at global corporations, I feel the greatest thrill when my knowledge serves as the foundation for someone else's growth.

I continue to study today. I do so to convey complex technologies more easily and clearly, and to ensure our team grows stronger together. To go beyond being an engineer who excels alone and instead create an ecosystem where we succeed together—that is how I love my work.
