“Jose’s outstanding reputation in the data center industry, coupled with his proven commitment and ability to help customers navigate the complex landscape of capacity needs in an innovation-driven environment, makes him a great strategic addition to the team,” Co-Managing Partner Rob Kennedy said in a statement.
Stream said Ruiz, who brings more than a decade of global experience in data center development, engineering, operations, and strategy, will improve customer engagement by creating a compelling, innovative platform strategy that further aligns Stream’s offerings with its customers’ evolving needs to meet their growth goals.
Throughout his career, Ruiz, a former lieutenant commander and naval aviator for the U.S. Navy, has consistently demonstrated a commitment to leadership, innovation and excellence, Stream Data Centers said.
It said he offers an ideal blend of technical acumen, strategic industry experience, and leadership insight, making Ruiz a unique talent who has established multi-billion-dollar joint ventures and secured several pivotal data center patents.

“I am deeply grateful to be entrusted with this role at such a pivotal time for Stream and our industry,” Ruiz said in a statement. “Stream seeks to go beyond the transactional and instead fosters enduring commercial relationships supported by deep understanding of our customers’ unique requirements and objectives. It’s not just about data center capacity; it’s about capability, innovation, and accelerating Stream’s growth in this dynamic market.”
