Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCiprian Barbu is a Senior Software Engineer and technical lead with a decade of deep systems and networking experience, currently building space-grade software at Thales Alenia Space. He has strong C/C++ and Linux expertise across virtualization, NFV/SDN, OpenStack, Kubernetes and ARM64 platforms, and a track record of porting and optimizing dataplane and edge-stack components for production use. Past roles at Juniper and ENEA include sustaining complex distributed network stacks like Tungsten Fabric and contributing to Linaro’s OpenDataPlane work, demonstrating both field debugging chops and upstream open-source collaboration. He pairs hands-on kernel and userspace development with CI/CD and automation practices, and has repeatedly led cross-continental teams to deliver carrier-grade NFV solutions. Not obvious from the title: he blends low-level performance engineering (DPDK/Netmap, kernel work) with cloud-native orchestration to make cutting-edge edge infrastructure run on ARM and COTS hardware.
