Matt Hunnicutt has more than 25 years of experience in port terminal operations, technology, and automation. Since 2010, he has served as Chief Information Officer at Long Beach Container Terminal (LBCT), where he has led the technological strategy behind one of the most advanced terminal modernization projects in the world.
At LBCT, Matt oversaw the technology aspects of the terminal’s decade-long modernization, automation, and expansion program. Delivered in three phases, the project represented nearly $1.5 billion in infrastructure investment by the Port of Long Beach and an additional $700 million by LBCT in cargo handling equipment, advanced computer and software systems, and workforce training. Under his leadership, the initiative more than doubled terminal capacity, deployed nearly 200 pieces of electric cargo handling equipment, and established LBCT as a global model for sustainable, automated port operations.
Before joining LBCT, Matt was General Manager of Network Engineering at APM Terminals, where he directed major development and infrastructure projects. His career has been defined by driving innovation in port technology and building future-ready terminal operations.
