Top SchoolJonathan Maple is a Sr. Principal Linux Kernel Engineer with eight years of systems and kernel-focused experience, currently shaping CIQ's LTS kernel strategy, release processes, and contributor workflows. He brings deep expertise from AWS and Cray in Linux kernel programming, HPC GPU system software, PCIe, and large-scale storage platforms—having driven a ~40% performance uplift for an S3 index hardware design and led mass-storage POC work. Jonathan combines hands-on kernel patching and CVE mitigation with developer tooling and documentation that reduce cognitive load and speed onboarding, and he regularly surfaces customer-facing improvements via Level 3 support. Notably, his background spans both hyperscale cloud and HPC vendor work, giving him a rare perspective on marrying production stability with performance tuning across hardware and OS layers.
