About

A telecom professional with over 5 years of experience supporting live operator networks in a Managed Services environment — focusing on improving and stabilising LTE and 5G networks across urban and high-density environments. I have led and supported end-to-end network performance management across Ericsson and Huawei environments, analysing KPI trends and conducting in-depth root cause investigations to drive measurable improvements in throughput, accessibility, retainability, and overall service quality. My work has contributed to capacity growth, reduced call drops, improved mobility performance, and sustained KPI compliance in live LTE and 5G networks under SLA frameworks. Beyond RF tuning, I focus on network behavior at scale—how configuration parameters, traffic distribution, mobility performance, and transport or site-level constraints interact in live networks. This systems-level understanding enables me to own performance outcomes in Managed Services environments, leading Tier-2 performance escalations, coordinating cross-functional resolution, and executing data-driven optimization actions that safeguard network stability, SLA compliance, and customer experience. I combine RF expertise with strong data and automation skills, using SQL, Python, Power BI, and Excel to streamline reporting, uncover performance risks, and support operational decision-making Currently advancing my knowledge in 5G features, AI-driven optimization, and network analytics, with a long-term focus on intelligent, self-optimizing networks.
