Pioneer Consulting Hires deGuzman

International submarine cable consulting firm Pioneer Consulting has appointed Philip deGuzmanas as Director of Submarine Networks.

deGuzmanas, who brings to the role over 10 years in system design engineering and project implementation experience, will utilize his technical expertise and project management background in advising Pioneer Consulting’s global clients in the development of new submarine cable systems.

The new hire strengthens Pioneer Consulting’s ability to support multiple project deployments in parallel and to lead the complex projects that the company has been called upon to coordinate. These projects range from multi-national coordination with “content providers” (or OTTs) to disaggregated supply of regional systems.

A former employee from a leading undersea cable system supplier in the U.S., deGuzmanas managed the implementation of numerous trans-Pacific submarine cable projects. He holds a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering and is based on the east coast in the U.S.
