Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGabriele Baldoni is a senior software engineer with 11 years of experience building distributed, cloud-native and embedded systems across industry and research, currently at Datadog in the Greater Paris area. He combines hands-on Rust backend development, gRPC and async systems work with platform leadership—having led PaaS teams, defined roadmaps with C-level stakeholders, and run customer-facing engagements. His open-source contributions include extending Eclipse Zenoh with a Unix Domain Socket transport, reflecting deep expertise in geo-distributed data, low-latency networking and runtime integration. He holds a PhD focused on convergence of heterogeneous computing and networking, and has repeatedly applied that research to production tooling (fog05, Zenoh-Flow) and automotive/robotics dataflows. Comfortable managing both code and infrastructure, he also operates sizable Proxmox labs and architects IaC, Kubernetes and AWS integrations to validate real-world scalability.

eclipse-zenoh/zenoh
Nov 2020 - Aug 2022
zenoh unifies data in motion, data in-use, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks.
