Summary
Ereth Mcknight-macneil is a software engineer with nine years of experience building high-performance networking and systems software, currently working on datacenter network routing and routing optimization for GPU/ML workloads at Google. He has deep C++ and systems expertise across distributed systems, low-level Linux containers, filesystems, and security, and has contributed to Android and Chrome/ChromeOS codebases. Prior roles at Cisco and Rockport involved leading boot-time and performance optimizations, congestion-control simulation, and cross-layer hardware-software co-design, including a 10x routing speedup and multi-minute boot reductions. He pairs hands-on embedded and electronics experience—designing servo controls, custom sensors, and manufacturing fixtures—with strong software engineering, reflecting a background that spans firmware, drivers, and user-facing systems. Comfortable with CAD and hardware tools as well as large-scale software, he brings a pragmatic, full-stack problem-solving approach rooted in control theory and systems engineering. Based in Canada, he has a Master’s in ECE and a long history of shipping practical solutions from prototype to production.
