Principal Network Architect

19 YOE designing, testing, building, operating, and automating ISP and carrier networks. From tiny 3 PoP mini ISP networks, to thousands of PoPs and tens of thousands of devices, and multi-continent global routing. I’ve worked in roles from engineering, to architecture, to product design. I’m an active participant in the global networking community; I attend and speak at conferences, engage in the IETF, and help to organise events. My spare time projects were in C, now I’m learning Rust, but the day job is all Python. I’d like to stay in the carrier/ISP space. I've most recently been working on network architecture, BGP analysis, and product development, but I love all areas of networking.
