ABOUT

Specialists in the systems that run utility and telecom networks.

MagikDev is a Network Operations Solutions firm for utility and telecom operators. Headquartered in Lethbridge, Alberta, working across Canada, the United States, and Brazil.

We implement, support, and extend GE Vernova Smallworld Geo Network Management (GNM) and SAP for utilities and telecoms. Our engineers write Magik for a living. Our consultants have run network modernization programs from both sides of the table — vendor and operator. We are an Official GE Vernova Partner and an Official Microsoft Partner.

We don't run a creative studio, a consumer app practice, or a generalist SI. We do one thing, deeply, on a stack we know. Everything on this site reflects that focus.

Mission.

We make networks measurably more efficient — and the gains travel downstream.

Vision.

No operator we serve loses a dollar, an hour, or a customer to network inefficiency.

Five principles, each defined by behavior — not adjectives. They govern how we hire, how we evaluate clients, and how we decide.

01

Extreme Ownership.

When something breaks, we own it. No blame, no hand-offs. We fix it and we tell you what we changed.

02

Radical Candor.

We tell clients what we'd tell a colleague. If a request will cost more than it returns, we say so before the invoice.

03

Engineering Honesty.

No vanity benchmarks. No screenshots without context. Every number comes with a methodology.

04

Quiet Reliability.

Our best work is invisible. Systems run. Phones do not ring at 2 a.m.

05

Stewardship.

We treat every client's data, budget, and team like we'll be measured on the next ten years, not the next quarter.

    Ronaldo Terra

    Founder & CEO

    Twenty years building and running companies, most recently in enterprise software for utility and telecom operators. Ronaldo founded MagikDev to close the gap between what Smallworld GNM can do and what operators actually get out of it. He holds GE Vernova certifications in GridOS Modeling, ADMS, and Geo Network Management, and works directly in Magik.

  • Walter Cherfem, Founder & CIO of MagikDev.

    Walter Cherfem

    Founder & CIO

    Fifteen years inside Smallworld — Magik, PNI, Electric Office, PowerOn Restore — building and supporting the systems utility and telecom operators run their field work on. Walter spent two years at GE Vernova's grid software organization as a senior services specialist on large utility upgrade projects. At MagikDev he sets technical direction: what gets built, what gets integrated, and what does not ship.

We're an official partner to the two platform vendors most relevant to our clients' work, and we serve operators across utilities and telecom in three countries.

The founders sign off.

Every public statement — claim, number, case study — is reviewed and approved by the founders before it leaves the building.

Every claim has a source.

No number in our marketing unless it traces to a signed report, client email, or audit log.

Annual review.

Once a year we compare what we say in market against what we have actually delivered. Anything we can no longer defend comes out.
