Nikita Konyshev
@nikitakonyshev
VoIP / Telephony Engineer at Voxys who built and hardened a Kamailio SBC for live carrier and client traffic.
What I'm looking for
At Voxys, I built and maintain a Kamailio-based SBC in front of FreeSWITCH media servers, using rtpengine for media relay and dispatcher-based carrier failover. I also diagnose certificate-verification failures that block trunk registration.
At Voxys, I audited Kamailio routing logic against five threat categories and patched a logical-operator bug that opened a SQL-injection path in trunk validation, as well as a bug that disabled a WebSocket UA allowlist. I provisioned and maintained SIP gateways and wrote SIPp scenarios to validate trunk registration and call flows.
At Gliptika, I kept Asterisk and FreeSWITCH platforms available under production load, adding defenses with iptables, CrowdSec, and Fail2ban. I automated server provisioning and configuration management with Ansible and Python, and investigated call-quality issues using SIP/RTP traces.
Earlier, at Finenumbers, I supported clients, configured Asterisk servers, and managed Virtual PBX and RTU systems. I also worked with VoIP gateways and diagnosed call-quality and connectivity issues using packet-capture tools.
