Bio
Jeonghun Noh
I had the privilege of collaborating with Sina during my tenure at ASSIA and DZS for over a decade. From the moment I first encountered him in the interview in 2010, which was about queuing theory, to our ongoing partnership over the years, Sina has consistently demonstrated his exceptional qualities as a colleague and leader. Upon joining the company, Sina stood out as an approachable and resourceful colleague, always available for engaging brainstorming sessions. In 2015, the opportunity arose for me to join his team, and for the subsequent 8 years, he served as my dedicated manager. Our collaborative efforts yielded significant achievements, including the successful launch of the GPON Expresse product and the development of numerous enhancements for existing products. Our interactions extended beyond the realm of product development – we openly discussed research findings and freely exchanged constructive ideas, fostering an intellectually stimulating environment. Sina's impact on my professional growth has been profound. Under his guidance, I was not only encouraged to delve into emerging technologies like AI/ML but also to undertake ambitious research projects that ultimately found practical applications within our company's products. Sina's expertise spans a diverse spectrum of domains, encompassing computer networking, wireless and wired communications, as well as WiFi communications and optimization, among others. Sina's mentorship and leadership have played an instrumental role in shaping my career trajectory. His multifaceted knowledge, coupled with his unwavering support for innovation, make him an exemplary professional.

More than 10 years working with Sina have showed me his great skills on different areas. Through all these years he has led our Systems Engineering team and has been a key technical leader and mentor, to make company products evolve and build an expert team to support data analytics and algorithms implementation that have proved the value of our products to different ISPs across the world Some of his outstanding skills: - Sina has high level expertise in Access Technologies, Signal Processing and Analytics. - Great didactic skills to make the team properly understand the problems to be solved, and guide them in the best technical approach to address them. - Wide experience working close to customers in Telecomunications industry, both with equipment vendors and ISPs. - Great communication skills applied both when communicating with customers and internally, thanks to his empathy and very good understanding of both customer specific technical problems and how to approach them and commnunicate this accordingly. - Resolutive and decisive, when difficult decisions need to be made. And he will always keep calm and elegant even in more complicated situations :). - Adapt to dynamic work environment, affected with resources constraints. His expert knowledge together with his leadership skills has proved Sina to be a Senior Director with impact in the team and product, in both how technical work is efficiently and creatively done and how to make the engineers motivated and be part of a bigger team thanks to his empathy and understanding of each team member skills and possible motivations. For me, a leader, manager and workfellow, that I will keep as reference in many aspects throughout all my future career.
