Fernando Cobos

Telecommunication engineer

My experience with Video Platforms started when I got involved on Telefónica I+D - Global Video Platform project on the Monitoring Tools & Automation Team.

At the moment, I am living in Amsterdam and working for Liberty Global as E2E System Integration Engineer in the HZN4 Video Automation Team.


Great times are coming!
