Summary
Kostas Zorbadelos is a Senior Network Tools Developer with nine years of professional experience and a long track record in ISP and core Internet infrastructure roles, currently working on NTT's GIN network tooling. He specializes in network programmability, telemetry, traffic engineering and capacity planning, blending IETF-style network modeling with practical automation for large-scale IP/MPLS and data center networks. Previously he led network architecture at Canal+ Telecom and drove major IP services and deployments at OTE, giving him hands-on expertise from undersea transport to anycast DNS and IPv6 rollouts. An advocate of open source and open Internet principles, he contributes to operator communities as a GRNOG board member and teaches network topics, bringing both operational rigor and a scientist’s curiosity to tooling and measurement challenges. A less obvious strength is his cross-disciplinary depth—he pairs low-level UNIX/C experience and secure programming with higher-level network modeling and capacity strategy.
