About Prathamesh Malushte
17 years across IT & Telecom — from core network engineering to product management and now cloud operations at scale. Currently GM - Cloud Operations at Vodafone Idea Limited (Vi). My work spans cloud infrastructure management, NFV/SDN operations, OpenStack platforms, and SD-WAN — running telecom-grade systems that serve millions of users. Before Vi, I spent 9+ years at Alepo Technologies as Principal Solutions Architect and Product Manager — owning end-to-end product lifecycle for 5G Core network functions (SDM, PCF, AUSF, UDM,CHF) and cloud-native SaaS platforms deployed across 20+ countries. This included AI/ML-powered analytics, customer 360 platforms, and Gen AI integrations for enterprise telecom clients. Earlier, 7 years at Vodafone India across packet core, IN/VAS, international roaming, and SS7/STP signalling. What connects all of it: understanding how networks work at depth, translating that into products and platforms, and now operating them at scale.
