Senior Software Developer @ UK Telecoms Lab

Nov 2024 - current

Work Experience

I lead in-house software projects utilizing C/C++ and Python, collaborating with open-source communities and contributing to the OpenAirInterface (OAI) project. My work involved hands-on experience with Software Defined Radio (SDR), including prototyping fronthaul software between UE and gNB.

I extensively used Wireshark to intercept, decode, and analyze uplink and downlink packets across various network protocols. Additionally, I contributed to 5G core (open5gs) network infrastructure development, focusing on Ericsson's core and addressing 5G NR attack vulnerabilities. Collaborating with research teams, I implemented fuzzing techniques between UE and gNB, leveraging a strong understanding of 5G RACH procedures, RRC state transitions, and RRC protocol intricacies. My technical expertise includes developing tools using C/C++ and Python.

I use Ubuntu Linux daily in a virtualized environment to support my project workflows. Experience utilizing Kubernetes for efficient deployment and management of containerized applications. Acting as a liaison between stakeholders and developers, I gathered software requirements, designed specifications, and documented project progress.
