Jeremy Kuhne is a software developer with 11 years of experience currently based in Bothell, Washington, and contributing at Microsoft. He specializes in low-level .NET runtime and framework work—improving WPF, the .NET runtime, CoreRT, and performance-sensitive libraries—demonstrating deep expertise in file I/O, memory and parsing optimizations, and platform interoperability. Jeremy has applied that expertise across embedded IoT work (HD44780 LCD drivers) and high-impact core repos, showing comfort from device-level code to desktop UI frameworks. His contributions often focus on cleaning legacy code, adding targeted unit tests, and squeezing out performance via judicious refactors and runtime attributes like SuppressGCTransition. Notably, he has a track record of improving developer workflows (build scripts, clearer file structure) while resolving subtle platform bugs such as non-blittable struct handling and stack-trace retention. Pragmatic and detail-oriented, he bridges systems-level thinking with practical engineering that keeps large, widely-used .NET projects healthy and performant.
.NET is a cross-platform runtime for cloud, mobile, desktop, and IoT apps.
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer
Contributions:73 reviews, 375 commits, 13 PRs in 6 years 1 month
Contributions summary:Jeremy primarily contributed to the `.NET runtime` repository by fixing bugs related to icon entry selection and handling non-blittable LOGFONT structs within the System.Drawing.Common library. They also worked on breaking down the Access Control List (ACL) classes into separate files. Additionally, the user implemented performance optimizations, such as adding `[SuppressGCTransition]` to a critical API. They were responsible for resolving an issue retaining stack traces and implementing a feature addition around Matrix3x2 transformation methods and Vector conversions.
This repo is for experimentation and exploring new ideas that may or may not make it into the main corefx repo.

Contributions summary:Jeremy's primary contributions focused on refactoring and optimizing the `BufferReader` structure within the `corefxlab` repository. They improved the efficiency of binary and text parsing, including the addition of specialized methods for integer, date, and GUID parsing. The user also implemented optimizations for the `TryReadTo` and `AdvancePast` functions, enhancing the overall performance and functionality of the buffer reading capabilities. The changes indicate a strong focus on low-level optimization and efficient data processing within the project.
