Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYasir Ahmed is a seasoned infrastructure and security architect with over 20 years’ experience modernising global platforms for FTSE-scale organisations and a decade-plus track record in high-availability networking and security. As Founder of YYAGI Ltd he blends enterprise-grade CCIE-level networking, Zero Trust architecture and NetDevOps with hands-on Web3 infrastructure—operating Ethereum and Rocket Pool nodes, multi-network indexers, and deploying ZK circuits in Noir. He has led large global teams and delivered major SD-WAN and cloud networking transformations that cut operational costs ~25%, while also architecting resilient observability stacks for blockchain and enterprise systems. Comfortable writing Solidity, Rust and Python, Yasir bridges the old and new: carrier-grade routing, vendor negotiations and SASE migrations alongside privacy-preserving blockchain primitives. Based in Stony Stratford, he’s equally at home negotiating enterprise P&L and tuning Prometheus alerts for validator farms, bringing a rare combination of strategic leadership and low-level operational rigor.
