Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Prilik is a systems-focused software engineer with a strong Rust pedigree and five years of professional experience across cloud, OS, and virtualization projects. He played a core role at Microsoft shaping OpenVMM’s architecture and tooling—authoring infrastructure like flowey and implementing critical device emulation and Secure Boot/vTPM features—and earlier contributed to Azure IoT Edge and crosvm hypervisor work. Now at Meta, he applies that low-level systems expertise to closed-source engineering challenges while maintaining an active open-source footprint on well-known projects such as Azure/iotedge. Comfortable spanning backend, DevOps, and cross-team integrations, he brings practical experience with TPMs, FFI, kernel APIs, and CI rearchitecting. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic design, mentor-driven knowledge transfer, and turning risky refactors into repeatable, type-safe pipelines.
