François Locoh-Donou is an international technology executive best known for serving as President, Chief Executive Officer, and a member of the Board of Directors of F5, Inc. He has led F5 since April 2017, guiding the company through a major business transformation from a more hardware-centered networking company toward a software- and SaaS-oriented model with stronger emphasis on application delivery, hybrid cloud, and security. That strategic shift has been central to his tenure and reflects his ability to manage change while preserving a company’s technical strengths and culture.

At Ciena, he held successive leadership roles across products, sales, marketing, and international operations, giving him broad operational experience across a global technology business. Earlier in his career, he worked in research and development at Photonetics, a French optoelectronics company. This combination of technical, commercial, and operational leadership helped shape his reputation as a multidimensional executive with strong cross-border and cross-functional experience.
