Ed Holland is a seasoned software engineering manager with over a decade of experience leading teams from zero-to-scale, notably taking Private 5G and 4G IMS products from initial prototypes to GA and multi-million-subscriber deployments. He combines deep technical judgment (Java, Rust, Kubernetes, Azure) with strong product ownership, having built roadmaps, backlogs, and observability-driven operations for live customer services. Comfortable flexing between hands-on architecture and people-first leadership, he has grown teams from ~10 to 50 engineers across geographies while championing agile transformation and management culture. Known for pragmatically balancing long-term engineering investment with short-term business needs, he also drove company-wide Agile adoption and introduced metrics- and RCA-driven improvements. Based in London, Ed pairs a Cambridge mathematics background with a track record of shipping complex, highly available telecoms systems and embedding developer productivity practices that persist beyond delivery.
