LinkedIn Kernel Patches Website

What I work on

I develop low-level software for the places where hardware meets the operating system — Linux kernel drivers, bootloaders, real-time firmware, and embedded platform software.

  • Linux kernel upstream contributor — 15 patches merged across IIO, networking, storage, audio, filesystems, DRM/Accel, power, and SoC subsystems; reviewed by engineers at Intel, Red Hat, Microsoft, and Linaro
  • Embedded Linux platform engineering — Yocto/OpenEmbedded BSP, U-Boot, Device Tree, cross-compilation toolchain ownership on ARM SoC
  • Real-time systems — production firmware for 5G/6G platforms under hard real-time constraints; perf, ftrace, eBPF performance analysis on ARM multi-core
  • Medical biosensor drivers — IIO drivers for ECG/PPG (MAX86150) and EEG precision ADC (ADS1299) under active upstream review
  • AI accelerator kernel interface — patches to DRM/Accel subsystem for AMD Ryzen AI NPU and Intel VPU
  • Zephyr RTOS — MAX30101 SpO₂/heart-rate driver merged mainline (PR #108697)
  • Quantum computing — contributor to D-Wave Ocean SDK (PR #453 merged) and Qiskit (PR #16590 — memory safety fix in C API); interested in quantum hardware control systems and embedded software for cryogenic platforms
