Jean Riaux is a Field Application Engineer based in Paris with eight years' experience bridging high-performance storage software and hardware from design to production. He has deep hands-on expertise with HPC storage stacks, Lustre and DAOS—contributing Python API tests and fixes to the DAOS project—plus broad field support for OEMs integrating NVIDIA HGX and Kalray accelerators. Comfortable from low-level bring-up (BMC, PCI debug, OOB) to acceptance testing (NVQual, HPL) and long-term production support, he excels at turning complex system requirements into reliable deployments. His background includes top-tier customer support for TOP500-class infrastructures and teaching storage and parallelism topics, showing both practical delivery and the ability to explain complex concepts. Colleagues value his mix of software QA, storage engineering and on-site problem solving across hardware, firmware and system software. He often operates at the intersection of test automation and hardware validation, revealing issues early in the integration lifecycle.
