EP 63: Vicki Knott from CruxOCM

What happens when a control room engineer gets fed up with clunky old systems and decides to rebuild them from the ground up? You get CruxOCM, a company shaking up pipeline automation with tools like PipeBot and GatherBot that sound like sci-fi but are very real (and very efficient). Vicki Knott shares how she went from pulp and paper mills to leading a tech company that blends first-principles engineering with machine learning to make pipelines safer, faster, and smarter. We talk outdated SCADA, automation that actually works, and how merging physics with AI is unlocking massive ESG potential in midstream.
