With a PhD in Computer Engineering focused on Software Defined Networking and over 20 years of experience in the Computer Networks domain, I have held key roles at industry leaders such as Rakuten, Google, and ECI Telecom as an architect, engineer, and Technical Program Manager. In my current capacity, I collaborate closely with the Head of Artificial Intelligence to define and implement a robust AI strategy for AD products and solutions. I am responsible for creating a comprehensive AI roadmap that emphasizes key objectives and milestones while enhancing our internal capabilities through the integration of industry best practices. Leading cross-functional teams, I identify impactful AI use cases, prioritize business areas, and establish processes for continuous improvement of AI products. Additionally, I oversee the development and training of AI algorithms, manage troubleshooting efforts, and provide technical support to external stakeholders. I ensure that relevant infrastructure is in place for AI tool development and proactively identify use cases from internal partners, defining feature requirements and product specifications to drive innovation and value.I followed standard development organisations such as 3GPP, IEEE, ETSI, O-RAN, and created the following IEEE research papers. "Disaggregated Near-RT RIC Control Plane with Unified 5G DB for NS, MEC and NWDAF Integration" 2022 7th International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering (UBMK), Diyarbakir, Turkey, 2022, pp. 1-6, doi: 10.1109/UBMK55850.2022.9919594."NWDAF UDI (Use-case Development Interface) for End-to-end AI Enabled 5G and Beyond Networks," 2022 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence of Things (ICAIoT), Istanbul, Turkey, 2022, pp. 1-6, doi: 10.1109/ICAIoT57170.2022.10121746."Vendor Independent SDN Architecture Solution," 2020 5th International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering (UBMK), Diyarbakir, Turkey, 2020, pp. 1-6, doi: 10.1109/UBMK50275.2020.9219421.“V2X Services on Distributed NWDAF Architecture”In progress with IEEE Journals and Magazines / IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology“Analytics Management of IoT based Smart Cities through NWDAF”In progress with IEEE Journals and Magazines / IEEE Internet of Things Magazine"Analysis and prediction of Ε-customers' behavior by mining clickstream data," 2015 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data), Santa Clara, CA, USA, 2015, pp. 1466-1472, doi: 10.1109/BigData.2015.7363908.
