ABOUT MOJTABA HOSSEINI
As a systems thinker, I have come to realize that many challenging problems involve both technical systems and systems of people working together. As such, the intersection of technical and personal leadership is where I often find myself. Any complex system is near optimal state when it holds several aspects in steady-state balance or in a state of healthy tension: short-term vs long-term, speed vs quality, structure vs agility, etc. The challenge of achieving this tension and balance is where my passion and contributions lie. High energy leadership of complex software development and delivery spanning multiple (agile) teams including modular architecture, innovation, long-term vision of team and products, team management, development tools and processes, members\' career development, resource management, etc.Leadership and Change Management Skills: Setting and executing on long-term vision while delivering short term, transition from waterfall to agile, transition from silos to cohesive high-performing teams, transition to DevOps, transition from static inflexible architectures to highly modular and flexible architectures, building high performing teamsSoftware Skills: Real-time software, modular software architectures, embedded software, Multiple Agile teams, software development in highly critical/quality markets, software delivered as package with hardware, software development tools and processesTechnology: Video Delivery Architecture Design, Multimedia Delivery Over the Internet, H264/5, VP8/9, MPEG4, RTMP, RTP UDP IP, Application Layer Multicast, Real-Time Video Delivery (conferencing and tellecollaboration) as well as Video-On-Demand, webRTC, uncompressed and mathematically lossless image compression (JPEG-LS, and low-latency uncompressed video delivery standards (GigE Vision, U3Vision, VIVOE) and timing over Ethernet 1588 PTP)
