Senior🎓
Top SchoolEugenio Pérez is a Principal Software Engineer with 13 years of hands-on experience building high-performance, real-time network security and traffic big-data systems, now leading virtualization and networking work at Red Hat. He specializes in C and low-level networking stacks—contributing to virtio-net, virtqueues, and packed virtqueue implementations for efficient guest-device I/O—and has practical experience integrating Kafka, Snort, NetFlow, SNMP and RADIUS pipelines. An active open-source contributor, he has worked on the widely used librdkafka ecosystem by developing a C++ wrapper and modernizing code to meet C++ standards. He also teaches practical Snort IDS courses and has mentored security theses, blending production engineering with knowledge sharing. Based in Seville, Eugenio pairs systems-level rigor with an ability to adapt quickly to new telemetry and protocol tooling, and he’s equally likely to be found tuning kernel drivers or on a motorcycle.
