In this role, Matthew will oversee data center mechanical engineering and work closely with other team members to ensure that technical solutions are tailored to meet customers’ ever-evolving needs.

Matthew joins CleanArc from Cumulus Data Centers, which was purchased by Amazon Web Services in 2024. Matthew was a key part of Cumulus’ successful efforts to build a 1200-acre 1 GW data center campus in Berwick, PA. The project was the first to be powered behind the meter via nuclear reactors, representing an important step for the industry in net zero carbon
design.

Prior to his position at Cumulus, Matthew spent eight years at NTT Global Data Centers, where he helped grow NTT into a leading global data center provider. He joined NTT as part of its acquisition of RagingWire Data Centers in 2017. At RagingWire, he participated in the company’s unique, self-perform engineering and construction approach, which gave him significant exposure to every aspect of data center design through long term operations. He credits this experience to providing an overarching understanding of the data center business that benefits him to this day. While at NTT, Matthew developed the company’s standard mechanical, electrical and controls design and set up the supply chain for US projects to build at a large scale. Prior to that, he worked at Siemens and Schneider Electric, where he designed and implemented mechanical controls on major data center projects in NOVA.

Matthew holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Business Administration from West Virginia University.
