Salam has over 12 years experience in system design, test, and deployment of various communications systems including wireless, wireline, and optical networks. His background combines in-depth knowledge of signal processing techniques, digital communication theory, and nonlinear optics propagation, allowing him to bridge gaps between the seemingly unrelated fields of communication theory and the physics of fiber optics. Through a hands-on management style, he leads diverse teams of highly skilled engineers and scientists with the clear objective of taking disruptive technologies from conception stages to viable commercial products. Prior to founding Menara, he held senior positions, ranging from research to field deployment, with Nortel networks’ wireless division and Qtera’s WDM system design group. He co-authored several patents and holds a BS, MS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Oklahoma and is finalizing his requirements for the Ph.D. degree from SMU. |
