Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaolo Rovelli is a seasoned software engineer and team leader with 13 years of experience and a deep 10+ year background in embedded telecom systems, currently driving software at Nokia. He combines hands-on low-level expertise—bootloaders, device drivers, Linux kernel and networking subsystems—with architecture and platform design for switches, routers and radio-links. Paolo has led multiple cross-border Agile teams in Europe, prioritizing mentorship, professional development and a collaborative culture that turns complex requirements into reliable products. He pioneered SDN proofs-of-concept (Open vSwitch/OpenDaylight) and model-driven network applications using YANG, REST and modern frontend stacks for telecom use cases. Comfortable across the full stack, Paolo bridges hardware, real-time embedded software and cloud-native control planes while keeping quality, test automation and scalable APIs at the center. His background in microwave engineering and numerical electromagnetic research gives him an uncommon systems-level perspective on RF-to-software integration.
