James Saunders is a DevOps Developer with 10 years of experience blending network engineering, automation, and full-stack development to drive software-driven telecom operations from Portsmouth, UK. He has led the introduction of CI/CD, unit testing and Agile practices while building a Network Orchestrator at Neos Networks that automates configuration, improves inventory quality, and reduces human error. Previously he developed data-driven web tools and dashboards at Liberty Global, combining Python, Node, MySQL and frontend work to turn network telemetry into actionable insights. An active contributor to open-source front-end projects like X3DOM, he focuses on documentation, UI fixes and code quality—traits that mirror his habit of “documenting the undocumented” at work. Entrepreneurial as Managing Director of Data Point Ltd, he pairs systems thinking with a knack for data visualization and automation to make tedious tasks informative and repeatable.
