Helping automotive, robotics, defence and industrial organisations build scalable distributed systems using Zenoh, DDS and edge-to-cloud architectures.

I help automotive, robotics, and industrial organisations design scalable, real-time distributed systems using Zenoh, DDS, ROS2, and edge-to-cloud architectures. My work spans solution architecture, enterprise solution consulting, product strategy, and business development — from technical pre-sales and PoCs to conference workshops and partner enablement.
Middleware work spanning customer solution consulting, hands-on engineering, and community leadership.
I'm a Senior Solutions Architect, Product Strategist, and Technical Evangelist with 13+ years specializing in next-generation distributed systems across Automotive (SDV), Robotics, Industry 4.0 (IIoT), Defence, and Aerospace domains.
Beyond architecture, a large part of my role is solution consulting: understanding enterprise requirements, proposing architectures, and running technical workshops and PoCs that help engineering teams adopt Zenoh and DDS in production.
I work closely with product engineering to shape product strategy and roadmap based on that field feedback — across the Zenoh, Zetta DDS, Cyclone DDS, and OpenSplice product lines.
On the business side, I drive technical pre-sales and business development — identifying new markets, building relationships with semiconductor vendors, robotics companies, and OEM partners, and contributing to growth strategy. I'm also active in ecosystem development, working with the Eclipse Foundation, the ROS community, and integration partners.
My focus is on enabling intelligent edge and distributed systems by integrating AI-enabled applications with scalable middleware, edge-to-cloud architectures, and real-time data distribution — primarily built on Zenoh (zero-network-overhead protocol), Zenoh Pico, Zenoh Flow, the Zetta Platform, and DDS (Data Distribution Service). Currently at ZettaScale Technology since January 2022; previously at ADLINK Technology, FIS, and Tata Power's Strategic Engineering Division.
13+ years across distributed systems, middleware and enterprise software — from real-time defence systems to global SDV and robotics platforms.
A blend of technical depth and business capability — from middleware architecture to customer consulting and product strategy.
Active contributor to the global distributed-systems and robotics community through talks, workshops, and panels.
Technical talk plus panel discussion on "Winning Through Open Collaboration — How Communities Help Build an International SDV Ecosystem."
Led the rmw_zenoh workshop and presented a follow-up talk on scalable, efficient robotic communication using Zenoh middleware.
Discussed Zenoh's role in low-latency, real-time data distribution across ECUs, HPCs, cloud, and microcontrollers in connected vehicles.
Introduced rmw_zenoh as an alternative ROS 2 middleware layer, addressing DDS limitations in modern robotics deployments.
13+ years across sectors where reliability, real-time performance, and scale are non-negotiable.
In-vehicle middleware, V2X, and data-centric architectures for Software-Defined Vehicles.
ROS2-based distributed architectures and edge-cloud robotics integration.
OT/IT convergence and industrial communication systems for enterprise integration.
Real-time, mission-critical systems communication built to secure, deterministic delivery standards.
High-throughput, real-time mission-critical communication for aerospace-grade platforms.
Microservices and distributed data pipelines spanning edge to cloud.
