Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJérôme Gardou is a senior software engineer based in France with 16 years of experience building low-level C/C++ systems and shipping reliable production code. Currently at CrowdStrike, he brings deep expertise in kernel-mode and WIN32K internals demonstrated by substantial contributions to the ReactOS project—a high-profile open-source reimplementation of Windows—where he implemented drawing routines, memory management fixes, and C++ library support. His background blends engineering and business roles, from project management at Airbus to commercial and managerial stints, giving him a pragmatic view of product impact and stakeholder needs. Trained as an aeronautics engineer at École Centrale Lyon, he pairs rigorous systems thinking with hands-on low-level programming, a combination that surfaces in challenging platform and security-oriented work.
