Senior🎓
Top SchoolNiloy Saha is a Doctoral Researcher at the University of Waterloo specializing in AI-driven management and telemetry for 5G/6G and software-defined networks, with eight years of research experience spanning academia and industry. He builds full-stack testbeds that combine programmable data planes (Intel Tofino/P4), Kubernetes-based 5G cores, and ML pipelines to deliver SLA-aware slice monitoring, QoS anomaly detection, and closed-loop automation. His work bridges theory and practice—publishing on slice monitoring and collaborating with Rogers and Expeto on a campus private 5G deployment and executive training—demonstrating an aptitude for translating research into operational systems. Trained at IIT Kharagpur and experienced in SDN for IoT and telemedicine, he brings a systems-first mindset to cloud-native orchestration and network telemetry. Notably, he integrates high-precision in-network telemetry with ML-driven orchestration to enable scalable, autonomous network operations.
