Francesco Cesarini is the founder of Erlang Solutions. He has worked with the Erlang Ecosystem on a daily basis since 1995, starting as an intern at Ericsson’s computer science laboratory. He moved on to Ericsson’s Erlang training and consulting arm working on the first release of OTP, applying it to turnkey solutions and flagship telecom applications. In 1999, soon after Erlang was released as open source, he founded Erlang Solutions, which has become the world leader in Erlang based consulting, contracting, training and systems development.

Francesco has worked in major Erlang-based projects both within and outside Ericsson, and as Technical Director, has led the development and consulting teams at Erlang Solutions. He is also the co-author of ‘Erlang Programming’ and ‘Designing for Scalability with Erlang/OTP’ both published by O’Reilly and lectures at Oxford University.
