Senior🎓
Top SchoolFaris Mismar is a Senior Principal Consultant specializing in wireless systems and AI with a Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from UT Austin and over two decades of industry experience across vendors, operators, and government. He builds practical AI-driven solutions—from generative AI consulting and reusable root-cause analysis libraries to mixed-integer programming for project scheduling—while advising C-suite and regulatory stakeholders globally. Faris has led product and transformation programs at Nokia Bell Labs, Samsung, Jio and Ericsson, delivered 5G/NR and O-RAN strategy and prototypes, and even consulted on lunar 3GPP infrastructure for peaceful use. He combines deep research credibility (teaching and course materials on deep learning for 5G) with hands-on delivery—automating workflows that achieved 30x speedups and shipping prototypes that entered product roadmaps. Based in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, he frequently bridges academia, industry and government, bringing a rare mix of technical depth, regulatory experience, and geo-aware data engineering. Notably, he founded Bell Labs’ Data Science and AI Community of Practice and routinely translates advanced ML into operational telecom outcomes.
