RFP and technical writing specialist at Air Link Communications, turning data center compliance expertise into winning enterprise proposals.
What I'm looking for
At Air Link Communications, I write enterprise RFP and tender responses for data center colocation and VPS services. My proposals average 10 per year, with a 40% win rate, and draw on the technical and sustainability credentials behind the services.
I led five ANSI/TIA-942 Rated-3 certification and recertification cycles under the 2017 (B) and 2024 (C) standards, achieving 100% compliance with external TIA auditors. I also authored 12+ technical advisory research papers and worked on GHG accounting and PUE/CUE sustainability initiatives.
My work spans technical proposals, contract drafting support, and customer-facing content, including articles and webinar appearances on data center operations and sustainability. I bring an MSc in Renewable Energy Technology, CDESS certification, and hands-on experience translating complex technical and regulatory subjects for enterprise buyers.
