17th July 2025 — EkkoSense, a global leader in the provision of AI-powered data center optimization software, has strengthened its Americas team with the appointment of Nick Leoni as its lead Technical & Integration Engineer.
Nick brings almost 20 years’ data center software development, systems design, systems integration, and project management experience to EkkoSense. Based out of Montana, he joins EkkoSense after 15 years with data center digital infrastructure vendor Vertiv, having started with the company as a Systems Design Engineer when it operated as Geist Global. Previously Nick worked as a DCIM software development specialist for Server Racks Australia in Canberra, and began his data center career as a project manager with Schneider Electric.
“As AI compute loads kick in, operations teams have to be absolutely on top of exactly what’s going on across their data center rooms, particularly when it comes to optimizing different elements of their cooling infrastructure,” said Nick Leoni. “EkkoSense’s EkkoSoft Critical SaaS platform is vendor-agnostic, encouraging integration with multiple data center systems across the white and grey space – I’m looking forward to helping our customers tie everything together from a data center optimization perspective.”
“Nick is a great addition to the EkkoSense Americas team, adding deep sector expertise that will prove critical as EkkoSense continues to support the industry’s largest and most complex data center rooms and enterprise deployments,” added Steve Lewis, Vice President of Sales for EkkoSense Americas. “And with EkkoSoft Critical able to bring capacity, power and cooling data together within a single, intuitive 3D visualization and analytics environment, Nick will play a key role in helping customers to unlock further value from their EkkoSense deployments.”
