Jaime Rodriguez, Product Development Leader

Jaime Rodriguez

I have been with Ericsson for 13 years, joining directly after completing my studies at the University of Malaga. I hold a Master of Science degree in Telecommunication Engineering and MBA.

At present, I work as Product Development Leader in the Solution Area of Cognitive Network Solutions (CNS). In this role, I lead diverse teams consisting of data scientists, software developers, and Radio Network experts. Together, we design and develop AI solutions (software applications) for Radio Network Optimization. These solutions are available as rAPP on the Ericsson Intelligent Automation Platform, as part of Ericsson's portfolio offering.

Ericsson journey

Upon joining the company, I became part of a global Services Delivery organization, initially working as a Network Engineer and later progressing to the role of Solution Architect. In this organization, I offered and delivered services and solutions for mobile operators worldwide.

During that time I travelled and lived in multiple places serving customers, including few years in USA and Switzerland, and shorter stints in various other locations such as Brazil, Iran, India, Germany, Jamaica, and few others.

Following eight years as a Solution Architect, I joined an AI Lab within the same organization, where I spent around four years as a Technical Lead developing innovative AI-based solutions for Network Optimization.

After that, I transitioned to the Cognitive Network Solutions R&D organization as a Product Development Leader, where I continue to oversee the creation and development of new AI-driven optimization algorithms to be delivered as software applications to our customers.
