Top SchoolIhor Solodrai is a software engineer with 11 years of experience spanning compilers, legacy modernization, cloud services, and low-level kernel work. After a decade building COBOL-to-Java compilers and static analysis tools, he moved into cloud and backend engineering at Amazon and later built AllegroGraph’s cloud backend as a consultant. In 2024 he discovered eBPF, began contributing publicly to the Linux Kernel BPF subsystem, and now works on BPF CI and tooling at Meta, including the BPF Verifier Visualizer project.
