Summary
Claudiu Ghioc is a Senior Software Engineer with 15 years of experience building low-level systems, device drivers and networking features across startups and major tech companies. He has deep expertise in operating systems and Linux kernel internals, evidenced by work on a custom Linux scheduling class, kernel-level power management, and teaching OS courses at University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest. At Google he designed drivers for wearable sensors and later helped define Android XR permission support, and he now contributes at Meta from Zurich. His background spans embedded RTOS development, protocol and Layer 2 networking (802.1x, VLAN, IGMP), and real-world product shipping on Fitbit and Lenovo platforms. Comfortable with vim and git, he combines academic rigor (Master’s in Parallel and Distributed Systems) with pragmatic engineering—often tackling the tricky intersection of kernel, drivers and privacy-sensitive platform features. An engineer who prefers building systems from the metal up, he brings both hands-on implementation skill and cross-team design experience.
