With O3b mPOWER launching this year, it is undoubtedly a very exciting time for SES and the connectivity industry. For our teams directly involved with the project, it is especially thrilling to see the innovations and unprecedented advancements the next-generation MEO satellite-enabled communications system will bring to life. We sat down with Mourad Ouaret, Operations Technical Lead on the O3b mPOWER team, to see how his team orchestrates the automation of end-to-end solutions at the heart of SES’s O3b mPOWER system and what inspires him most about his work.
