Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJeff Chan is a firmware engineer based in New York with over a decade of experience designing high-impact embedded systems and automation. At IBM he led delivery of strategic hypervisor capabilities, acted as primary SME for VM orchestration heuristics, and built automation that reduced memory-dump analysis time by hundreds of hours per month—translating into multimillion-dollar annual savings. He combines hands-on firmware development with systems design and team leadership, guiding a 10-engineer effort and improving team productivity by 50% through AI-assisted tooling. Comfortable across low-level diagnostics, logging services, and Fibre Channel fabric tools, Jeff brings a pragmatic focus on efficiency and measurable outcomes. An early research and teaching background in data analysis and biology hints at a quantitative, methodical approach to problem solving beyond typical firmware skillsets.
