Bruno Rijsman
Summary
👤
SeniorBruno Rijsman is a seasoned network architect and software engineer with 17+ years of experience spanning classical routing, data center fabrics, and emergent quantum networking technologies. He blends deep protocol expertise (BGP, ISIS, MPLS, EVPN) and low-level networking development (Linux networking, P4, C/C++) with large-scale engineering practices and product architecture leadership from roles at Juniper and Lucent. Now a nomadic architect, he focuses on applying classical networking lessons to quantum networks, contributing open-source implementations (RIFT, BB84 QKD integration, Cascade) and IETF/IRTF drafts that bridge theory and deployable systems. Known for turning research into runnable code, he also runs seminars that translate networking concepts for quantum researchers and maintains a curated quantum networking resource list. Based in Seattle, he pairs hands-on coding with public speaking and customer-facing innovation—when not coding he’s likely hiking and photographing remote landscapes.
