Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolIsaak Cherdak is a Senior Systems Software Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience designing and shipping embedded and systems software for storage, wireless networking, and microgrid control projects. He has driven platform-level work at HPE—authoring firmware, debugging boot sequences, and integrating PCIE/NVMe components—and built end-to-end sensor and data-collection systems for microgrid deployments, including a UN-focused rural electrification design. Isaak favors a ground-up, modular approach that keeps products integrally testable and maintainable, which led him to create high-performance test frameworks and repository/build systems to improve deployment and QA. He combines deep low-level expertise (kernel/firmware, custom kernel modules, nl80211/cfg80211) with practical system architecture and mentoring experience, and is now exploring SRE/SDET/QA roles that match his emphasis on robust, integrated systems. Notably, his work spans both enterprise storage reliability at scale and community-driven server operations, reflecting a rare mix of production-grade engineering and hands-on operational stewardship.
