@youngiceler
Network security executive driving revenue growth and Industry 4.0 innovations through strategic partnerships.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven executive with 30+ years in network security, industrial computing, and datacommunications. I drive Industry 4.0 innovations and have a proven track record leading business units through reversals of underperformance—achieving sustained revenue growth and contributing to multiple company IPOs across tech/hardware sectors.
I excel at strategic business development, OEM/ODM partnerships, and cross-functional leadership spanning R&D, sales, manufacturing, and operations. From building a network security appliance division (~40% of annual revenue) to reversing negative business trends at IBASE Technology, I bring global negotiation, product marketing, and technical-domain depth (cybersecurity, cloud security, IPC/IIoT, PdM, automation/control, and data storage) to high-stakes environments—turning technology application into measurable value.
