Helwich - Keeper of the Digital Infrastructure

All of us enjoy the benefits that come with living in a digital era, but very few actually understand or think about the complex technology that allows us to check emails, buy our bus tickets or watch the latest episode of Modern Family on the go. IT specialist Walter Helwich has been working in the IT sector for more than 20 years. He is one of those guys operating behind the scenes, making sure that digital infrastructure works.

Companies that provide network services know their existence depends on maintaining data networks as fast as they are reliable. If a page isn’t loading fast enough customers will move to another provider. That is where Helwich and his hardworking team step in, making sure their networks are protected from intrusions that can threaten the quality of the network. 

As Walter explained, this is a rapidly changing area, where the devices we use today are quite different from those used a decade ago, and because of that they need to future-proof their customers by monitoring and managing the systems of today and tomorrow. Over the years, Helwich has mastered his law and is has come up with some unique solutions for using the technology to serve the needs of current and future clients, and respond to increasingly sophisticated global threats.

He began working in this industry right after university and has participated in numerous Technology Advanced Researches. According to him, the key thing for making in this business is being able to impart the passion you have, along with finding a company who complements your strengths.

Last year, Walter Helwich was even named IT employee of the year, and was given recognition for his ability to build meaningful customer relationships and provide innovative solutions for national security.

But eventually it all comes down to the people and that’s reflected in how we treat one another. If the staff has ownership and are respected then they enjoy working. In the years ahead of us, he plans to continue expanding his global footprint and broaden his portfolio of achievements in this industry.
