‘Devout tech capitalist’
Carmelo describes himself as a “devout tech capitalist” on LinkedIn. As VP of Operations, Lisciotto will lead ARS post-delivery operations across three areas of its business namely law enforcement, digital ID, and government. He also will oversee the technical assistance center, service delivery management, field engineering, service transition, contract management, customer success management and monitoring, and SRE, CI/CD automation. the company said.
Before NEC, he was vice president of IT operations and chief security officer for Life Image, a medical evidence and image exchange network, where he led technical production operations, data management, compliance, and security activities.
Lisciotto’s experience with both on-premises and cloud platform infrastructure including AWS, Azure, and OpenShift will support ARS pre-sales and sales teams with estimating operation costs and will promote cloud solution delivery and operational support across multiple customer segments, NEC said.
