Technology Executive·Nokia Bell Labs DMTS
I build the ecosystems around programmable networks and Network as Code, Nokia's B2B SaaS platform, pairing deep engineering with commercial execution to turn complex R&D into revenue. I decide which partners and use cases we take to market, and my team makes them work on live operator networks.
Turning what the network can do into something developers, enterprises and AI agents can build on.
My work sits between the network and the applications that use it: taking capabilities such as number verification, Quality on Demand and L4S, turning them into tools developers and enterprises can build on, and into new revenue for operators.
I work closely with NVIDIA and Google Cloud on edge AI and network API initiatives. Working with operators including Deutsche Telekom, Elisa, and Telia, I have developed Network as Code proofs of concept and progressed the technology through to commercial launches.
I joined Nokia in 2019 as a software developer. In 2024 I was named a Nokia Bell Labs Distinguished Member of Technical Staff (DMTS).
Network APIs for AI agents: making the network something applications and agents can call directly, and turning that into a business for operators.
My view: the network is becoming a programmable platform. As AI moves to the edge, that platform enables a new category, edge AI as a service. AI-RAN, AI built into the network itself, is the clearest example today, and network APIs are how it gets used and paid for.
My take on the Nokia and NVIDIA AI-RAN partnership: wireless networks become platforms for distributed edge-AI compute, and programmable APIs are how that compute gets monetized.

Built the partner ecosystem for the new Network as Code platform from zero to one. Took the initial blueprint to market, defined the global partner strategy, and signed the platform's first commercial partners, including foundational integrations like Telia Sirius.
Advanced rapidly from a software developer to an ecosystem leader. Architected operational improvements for large agile organizations, and subsequently built and ran the flagship 5G innovation program at Nokia Arena, growing its partner ecosystem to over 40 organizations.
