Summary
🤩
RockstarArko Dasgupta is a San Francisco–based software engineer with six years of professional experience building cloud-native networking and infrastructure. Currently at Tetrate and formerly at Docker and Cisco, he’s an active contributor to high-profile open-source projects like Moby and Envoy Gateway, where he’s fixed container networking bugs, added IPv6 and ipvlan/macvlan support, and enabled features such as global rate limiting, HTTP/2, and gRPC-web. His work spans low-level networking (iptables, SNAT corrections) to deployment and CI improvements, reflecting a knack for bridging kernel- and orchestration-level problems into reliable production systems. With an M.S. in Computer Engineering from UW–Madison and a B.E. from Pune Institute of Computer Technology, he combines research lab experience with practical DevOps and backend engineering.
