Vice President, Enterprise Architecture

One of the original founders of TantaComm, Leo brings over 30 years of IT design and development experience to the company.  He was responsible for the design and development of the company’s first digital recording product, the DART8.  The product was introduced to the contact center industry in 1995, and a significant number of the systems are still in production recording calls after thirteen years, a testament to the reliability of the design.  Since the late 1990s Leo has headed up a team of software and hardware design engineers that have developed and placed into production TantaComm’s latest generation recording platform, the Net Auditor.  Other applications, like DartQA, TantaComm’s quality assurance suite, and DartMON for real time agent monitoring, have also been developed by Leo’s team.   Today, Leo continues to head up the development team and plays a central role in the concept and design of new enterprise architecture.
