Summary
My goal is to be an effective interface between new technologies and the technical, commercial & marketing teams that need to get revenues from new technologies or services based on it, or reduce costs and increase flexibility. Based on experience I understand the complex needs of Service Providers. Currently my main focus is on 5G Signaling (SCP, SEPP, etc.), Roaming (IPUPS, Signaling Firewalls), GTP Proxy and Diameter Signaling. Though areas like IoT, Private Networks, IMS, QKD, Messaging, VoLTE/VoWifi and SIP also can count on my attention. Representing F5 at 3GPP (CT4, SA), GSMA and other industry platforms. Some key words: Signalling, roaming, engineering, design, new developments, security, new business, QKD, Quantum Safe Encryption, SIP, LTE, IMS, Diameter Proxy, GTP Proxy, people manager. Introduced the Core GSM network of Orange Netherlands and later GPRS, UMTS and UMA. Also special (managed) roaming services have been introduced to stay ahead of competition. At Tekelec (now Oracle) I did market development activities for their latest solutions like SMS-Firewall, Service Broker, SIP Signaling Router, PCRF and Diameter Signalling Router. At Traffix Systems (now F5) I did Business Development for the SDC, Signaling Delivery Controller. This was Traffix's market leading Diameter Router, Diameter Gateway and more. Specialties: Signaling, helicopter view, combine business and complex technology, LTE, Diameter Proxy, GTP Proxy, IMS, SIP proxy, PCRF, M2M, Core Network, manager, engineering, design, switching, signalling, roaming, number portability, MVNO, UMTS, GPRS, UMA, ISDN
