Hi! I'm Anton!

I'm a telecom enthusiast interested in everything related to mobile networks, A2P (Application-to-Person) SMS and the wholesale messaging community. I'm also very passionate about data (everything from acquiring data, cleaning it and building something beautiful out of it) and learning new technologies.

Professionally I've been both technically and commercially active since 2013, working in the same broader business but for a few different companies, doing a bit of everything. I believe that having a broad understanding of how things work gives you the unique ability to see things that others might not.

Hard Skills The SMPP protocol & the SS7 stack Python Programming Microsoft Office (Excel, MS Access etc) & Google Suite (Google Sheets etc) Tableau, Kibana ️ Relational databases & Structured Query Languages (SQL) Data exploration & analysis: Pandas, NumPy ‍ Gathering useful information (building custom web scrapers, extracting information from excel/txt/csv/[filetype] -files programmatically) Data visualisation: Matplotlib, Plottly, Streamlit etc ️ Natural language processing: NLTK Front-end frameworks: VueJS, Flask ⚙️ Automation

✔️ 10 Years experience working with/or for Mobile Network Operators in technology companies ✔️ Good understanding of mobile networks, the SS7 stack and mobile operator elements ✔️ Excellent at troubleshooting and finding insightful data and a way to share it with others

I wish to continue developing my toolkit and contact network, both professionally and personally and I'm very excited about experiencing tomorrow's technology.

Personally I spend a lot of time exploring & playing around with new technologies and I blow off steam by aggressive inline skating, speed typing and playing online games.
