Alex Feng is an R&D engineer and PhD candidate based in Barcelona with 10 years' experience building and deploying production-grade network telemetry and anomaly detection systems. At INSA Lyon he contributes to IETF protocol standardization (YANG-Push, iOAM, IPFIX, BGP/BMP) and has delivered rule-based disruption detection deployed in Swisscom production monitoring 13,000 L3 VPNs and ingesting over 1M telemetry metrics/sec. Technically fluent in C, Python, Java, Linux tooling and container tech, he pairs low-level protocol design with scalable collector implementations published as open-source tooling. His background spans both research and hands-on product delivery—from front-end and cloud-native stacks at startups to enterprise platform work—giving him a pragmatic view of what operators need. An uncommon strength is translating IETF standards into deployable collectors and operator-ready semantics for network incidents, bridging specifications and real-world monitoring.
