Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNick Buraglio is a seasoned network engineer and architect with 12+ years building and modernizing large-scale WANs, IPv6 deployments, and network security for research and government environments. He leads Planning and Architecture at ESnet, chairs the IETF v6ops working group, and drives the DOE’s IPv6-only implementation—roles that blend hands-on prototyping with strategic policy and cross-agency coordination. As founder/CTO of ZTVI.org and a longtime consultant, he mentors engineers, shapes production-ready orchestration and SDN strategies, and advises projects like RouteViews. He co-hosts the IPv6-Buzz podcast and co-founded MODEM.show, translating deep protocol knowledge into accessible guidance for practitioners. Trained in arts and applied computer science, he brings a creative, experimental mindset—sometimes dabbling in code and security—to otherwise highly structured infrastructure challenges. Based in Savoy, Illinois, he pairs academic and operational experience to push practical, open IPv6 adoption across public and private sectors.
