Summary
Santhosh Kelathodi is a scientist and researcher with a rare combination of deep telecom systems engineering and applied AI expertise, blending over a decade in industry (protocol stacks, real-time and distributed systems) with a PhD and postdoc focused on computer vision and intelligent transportation. He now applies computer vision and machine learning to aquaculture welfare monitoring at Nofima, translating research prototypes into production-capable solutions. Previously he led large AAA, Diameter and IMS protocol projects at Huawei, owning end-to-end delivery, performance optimizations, and agile transformations for cross-functional teams. Comfortable in C/C++ and Python and experienced with RTOS and Linux, he pairs low-level systems craftsmanship with modern ML research methods. An unexpected thread through his career is consistent emphasis on performance engineering—designing components and architectures to meet stringent real-time and high-throughput requirements while maintaining product quality.
