At STORDIS, I own architecture and product direction for a platform line, lead five engineers, run reviews and mentoring, and still commit code. I designed and built the ORCA platform around Django, Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL, Neo4j, async job pipelines, and production operations.

I turn inconsistent third-party hardware and software interfaces into clean APIs. My work spans gNMI, NETCONF, SNMP, gRPC, REST, LDAP/RADIUS, certificate-based identity, and a typed Python SDK that customers build against.

Before STORDIS, I led an SDN controller for Nokia optical transport switches at Aricent Technologies and delivered multi-vendor management systems including OmniVista 2500. Earlier, I built monitoring tooling for a high-traffic value-added-services platform and GSM network operations.

I care about shipping incrementally, understanding production faults through RCA, and making technical decisions explicit enough to challenge. I also speak at OCP Global Summit and CloudFest, produce technical videos, and build dashboards and topology views that non-specialists can read.
