I was transitioned with the split of Docker's enterprise assets sold to Mirantis - 11/19 - 4/20* Lead engineer for Docker's Technology and Architecture Steering Advisory (TASA) team providing oversight of all significant internal engineering projects* Overall technical lead for the Universal Control Plane product. Brought numerous versions to market, representing the majority of Docker's commercial revenue. Worked with Product Management and customers to establish feature roadmap, defined overall architecture, and collaborated with team members to design and implement features.* Prototyped Kubernetes integration in UCP, pitched concept to CEO and Executive Staff, which greenlit the project, ultimately adding Kubernetes support into the Docker product offering* Built a libvirt/KVM driver for docker-machine, and internal tooling (testkit) for rapid cluster provisioning for dev/test work* Built a virtual disk image to docker image converter - v2c which served as a POC, developed into a formal converter tool* Developed a REST API proxy for session management of a microservices architecture utilizing nginx and lua extensionsTechnologies: Docker, Go, Kubernetes, git, Compose, make, bash, libvirt, Lua, Nginx, Python, Jenkins, REST, gRPC

Netkine's goal was to build a true distributed cloud market, bringing buyers and sellers of compute together, supporting datacenter grade compute through desktop compute in peoples houses.• Developed a complete custom Linux based cloud compute system derived from Debian/Ubuntu, KVM, and OpenStack. Supports BIOS and UEFI booting with secure boot, and a ramdisk based root filesystem residing within Windows NTFS. Customers interact via a simple console based GUI when booted into "cloud mode", and WiX based Windows installer with Windows Service and GUI to "join the cloud."• Developed a Linux kernel module with read-write block-device access of image files residing on read-only NTFS to support windows hibernation for rapid switching between Windows and "cloud mode"• Designed and implemented Netkine's secure, distributed overlay networking, leveraging SDN with Open vSwitch, IPsec, and GRE• Troubleshooting of complex distributed storage and networking problems• Developed numerous deprivileging solutions on OpenStack to address security limitations when deployed in a distributed environment, ranging from AMQP messaging proxies to REST API Proxies• Bug fixes and enhancements for various OpenStack components (primarily in Nova, Neutron, and Horizon)• Deployed and managed internal IT infrastructure, hardware procurement, server builds• Co-developed a GUI based OpenStack Cloud installer, capable of installing both cloud controllers and compute nodes.• Installation, and management of OpenStack in a public cloud setting• Developed an in-house continuous integration and component build system enbling a small team to rapidly develop, patch, test, and maintain an entire operating systemTechnologies and Languages: AMQP, bash, C, dpkg, Gerrit, git, GRE, grub, IPSEC, Jenkins, KVM, libvirt, LVM, make, MySQL, Nagios, OpenLDAP, OpenStack, OpenVPN, Open vSwitch, Python, RabbitMQ, REST, sbuild, SDN, Thrift, Trac, Twisted, UEFI, urwid, WiX, WxPython, Zeroconf

• Primary technical lead of the vISL team (at peak over 20 dev/qa engineers), developing a datacenter wide infrastructure software lifecycle manager. The tool was capable of installing complex multi-tier applications such as ESXi, Virtual Center, and VMware Tools, patching, upgrading, and deprovisioning, all while respecting software dependencies and order of operation constraints to ensure the datacenter was never "broken" due to software incompatibilities. Worked closely with Product Management and select customers to validate product direction.• Led the "Stateless ESX" project, also known as Auto Deploy, a feature where ESXi hypervisors PXE/HTTP boot over the network using centrally managed configuration. This enables large enterprises to rapidly provision and patch the hypervisors within their datacenter.• Lead engineer on the embedded ESXi project responsible for hardware health monitoring, and user-space API extensions working directly with hardware partners to develop extensions on the platform• Developed technical presentations and screencasts. Presented internally, to partners and customers.• Co-represented VMware engineering at the DMTF and contributed to the early drafts of the CIM standards for virtualization management• Co-developed a dependency based init system for ESXi, similar to Upstart or Systemd• Technical leadership and oversight for development of ESXi's native software package format (VIB)• Co-developed an in-house build system for tracking opensource projects, enabling developers to rapidly develop patches• Developed APIs implementing the SNIA SMI-S standard to expose the storage virtualization capabilities of ESXi and Virtual Center for 3rd party storage management software. Worked with various industry partners to enable their use of the API.Technologies and Languages: AMQP, bash, C++, git, grub, make, (CIM) MOF, Pegasus, perforce, Protobufs, Python, RabbitMQ, RDF, RPM, scons, SFCB, SMASH, SMI-S, Thrift, Twisted

• Assisted in defining the management software architecture for the 6120/6320 Fibre Channel RAID product• Designed and led a distributed team to build the agent tier for "Topology Reporter" which allowed use of C based CIM providers without a CIMOM.• Led effort to adopt industry standard FC-HBA API (T11) for Sun's native Fibre Channel stack. Actively contributed to SNIA workgroup and proposed asynchronous event model which was adopted in the standard. Public C API implemented in C++ to maintain binary compatibility.• Design, development, testing, and maintenance of a Java based Solaris patch diagnostic and download tool utilizing Servlets, Applets, swing and JDBC.• Development and maintenance of C and Java based storage management CLIs, libraries, and utilities• Assisted in maintaining a dev lab with multiple TB of storage and servers ranging from Ultra 1's to Enterprise 10000's.Technologies and Languages: bash, C, C++, cvs, FC-GS, FC-HBA API, Java, make, Pegasus, SFCB, SMI-S
