Description

I help Tier-1 management consulting firms and PE/VC funds crack the black box of telecom infrastructure and industrial technology.

As a former Principal Solution Architect and Senior Expert at a global telecom giant with 28 years of industry experience, I bring a rare "practitioner’s perspective" to high-stakes strategic planning. Having spent over 14 years architecting cross-border solutions across Europe and Africa, I deeply understand the underlying Capex/Opex structures and the actual friction points of enterprise technology adoption.

My core value lies in bridging the gap between complex technical architectures and tangible commercial value (TCO/ROI). I have successfully orchestrated the end-to-end design and tripartite commercial negotiations for landmark European projects, including Audi's 5G test track (Germany) and Jaguar Land Rover's commercial V2X innovation (UK).

Typical Deliverables & How I Support Your Projects:

Technology Due Diligence & TCO Modeling: Unpacking vendor "black-box" pricing and conducting realistic TCO/ROI assessments for digital investments or M&A targets.

Strategic Architecture Blueprinting: Designing vendor-agnostic IT/Telecom architectures (5G2B, V2X, SD-WAN) for the automotive, manufacturing, and logistics sectors.

Vendor Negotiation & C-Level Advisory: Acting as your technical "heavyweight" in steering committees to balance the power dynamic between enterprise clients, telecom operators, and equipment vendors.

Currently operating as an Independent Consultant, I partner with consulting teams on a project basis to provide unbiased, macro-level technical firepower and commercial due diligence.
