Dom Albano

Program Manager, Intercoms, Axis Communications, Inc.

I have had a fun career so far working in telecom and IT for around 25 years and crept into the surveillance & security space when I first started with Axis Communications in 2010. It all began with cabling and building computers before moving on to voicemail & call accounting systems, interactive voice response (IVR) and call center applications, servers, hypervisors, networking, storage, and VoIP solutions. I have degrees in business marketing and software development, numerous certifications, along with experience in support, installations, training, and sales solutions. When I am not playing around with Intercoms at work, you can find me spending time with my family, working on house projects, or hitting the trails on my mountain bike.

Montreal roots, global reach. Over 16 years, I’ve lived almost every role in this industry. From frontline support to leading global product strategy. I know where things break. I know how to fix them. That kind of range isn’t just a résumé flex. It’s proof that I know this industry from every angle. It shows I care enough to get it right. I bring clarity where others bring complexity. Follow my blog for sharp takes, real-world insights, and the occasional rant about things we should probably stop doing in digital signage.
