Hanno Liem joined Tucows in January 2018, as Chief Technology Officer. Prior to joining Tucows, Liem worked for Rakuten Kobo, where he had served as their Vice President of Global Operations since 2012, focusing on site operations and engineering. An experienced all-round Internet engineer and manager, he has been building large, scalable Internet infrastructures since the early 90s. Hanno loves building and leading teams of like-minded individuals to victory over daunting challenges. This passion comes through in his work as CTO, in his off time as an RPG and strategy game enthusiast, but perhaps most obviously, when these two worlds overlap.
