ABOUT RHYS WILLIAMS
Managing international telecom traffic has become significantly more complex.For OTT and CPaaS providers, the challenge isn’t just scale—it’s understanding what’s actually happening across infrastructure, cost, and fraud—often hidden in fragmented or incomplete data. Where is cost really coming from? Which traffic is legitimate—and which isn’t? What is driving complexity in your architecture? I work with operators on a fractional and advisory basis, using data to diagnose problems at source and implement practical solutions.Typically, I’m brought in when- Costs are rising but the drivers aren’t clear - Fraud exposure (IRSF / traffic abuse) is increasing - Data is fragmented and hard to act on - Engineering teams are tied up maintaining rather than improving With nearly 40 years in telecom—including 20+ years as Group CTO of a pan-European operator—I combine operational experience with deep data analysis to identify root causes and resolve them quickly-What I Help With Data-driven cost analysis and optimisation Fraud detection and revenue protection Infrastructure strategy (cloud, on-prem, hybrid) Reporting, analytics and operational visibility Scaling OTT and CPaaS platforms -How I WorkMost engagements start by making sense of data—often across billing, network, and operational systems—then translating that into clear, actionable decisions-Typical Outcomes- Reduced infrastructure and network cost - Identified and mitigated fraud exposure - Replaced fragmented reporting with real-time insight - Simplified complex architecture decisions - Freed engineering teams to focus on growth -Engagement Model- Fractional CTO / COO - Short-term strategic engagements - Targeted problem-solving (cost, fraud, data, When to Call Me- Costs are increasing but you don’t know why - Your data doesn’t give clear answers - Fraud is harder to detect or control - Systems are too complex to analyse effectively -If you\'re scaling an OTT or CPaaS platform and need clarity, control, and practical solutions—I\'m happy to talk.
