Austin, Texas, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJack Fewx is a Senior Principal Software Engineer in Austin with 23 years of embedded systems experience and a reputation for solving the problems others can’t. At Dell he leads firmware efforts across multiple server and chassis generations, acting as the go-to SME for Yocto/Bitbake, systemd, SELinux, and secure development practices. Colleagues rely on him to find subtle bugs, sanity-check designs, and avert release crises—often turning multi-week puzzles into weekending fixes. His background launching high-volume video products at Logitech and low-level firmware on diverse embedded platforms gives him a rare blend of product delivery instincts and deep hardware-near expertise. He’s as comfortable mapping build systems and Linux internals as he is coordinating cross-functional teams to integrate third-party software. Expect someone who sees the full system picture and raises the alarm long before issues reach production.
