Derrick Attubrah

I've delivered and operated mission-critical data center infrastructure across Africa, from a 5MW Tier III design for Safaricom in Kenya to Ghana's 4.5MW National Data Center. My work spans MEP architecture, technical bids, BOQs, client approvals, construction delivery, and Uptime Institute certification.

At Huawei Technologies, I developed HLDs, MEP solutions, and technical bids for 600kW to 5MW data center projects across Southern and East Africa. I also led power modernization for more than 800 MTN South Africa LTE sites, achieving 92% average site availability.

Before moving fully into solution architecture, I ran 24/7 dual-site operations at the Ghana National Data Center for Ascend Digital Solutions and Tata Communications. I owned MEP performance, SLA delivery, budgets, vendors, shift teams, emergency readiness, and critical systems from 11kV switchgear through UPS, generators, cooling, and monitoring systems.

I'm now leading data center projects and business development at Netline Technologies, shaping Huawei data center solutions from concept through bid submission. I bring field-tested operational insight to designs, value engineering, stakeholder engagement, and resilient project delivery.
