I also oversee operation and maintenance of the power and cooling systems supporting mobile network equipment. From 2021 to 2025, I contributed to 5G Non-Standalone network design and planning, including Cloud-based RAN, and planned the transition from 4G to 5G based on 3GPP and ITU standards. Earlier at Kosovo Telecom, I supervised routine, preventive and corrective maintenance of CS-Core nodes, supported operational teams, and worked on core network optimization. As a Radio Network Engineer, I monitored network KPIs and explored opportunities to improve performance. My PhD research at South East European University focused on AI and machine learning applications for next-generation mobile networks. I’ve also taught computer and transmission systems, and delivered cyber security instruction for workers at small and medium-sized businesses in Kosovo. ``` ## Experience ### Network Manager (current) Kosovo Telecom.
