Live operations is the work most people never notice... until something breaks.

In this episode, I talk through what “live ops” actually means in streaming and broadcast environments, why the role is often misunderstood, and how my career has consistently centered on keeping systems stable under pressure.

From early livestreaming days to modern broadcast and cloud workflows, this is a reflection on being the person who clears issues, restores signal, and keeps things running when it matters most.

This episode is about the mindset, responsibility, and value of live operations in today’s media landscape.

I also touch on how ops professionals adapt quickly... learning new tools, systems, and even AI workflows faster than most roles require.
