Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Kulig is a senior software engineer with 15+ years designing and delivering satellite communications and virtualization systems, currently building transport/MAC layers and encrypted DVB‑S2 modem solutions at ViaSat. He combines deep embedded systems pedigree—from early Java-based OS-less runtimes and JVM-native networking to low-level UNIX and device driver work—with modern cloud expertise in AWS serverless and infrastructure automation. Joseph has repeatedly translated research-grade ideas into production hardware and software, including L‑band M2M terminals, TRANSEC links, and test flows for advanced communications ASICs. A long-time open-source contributor, he leads a Java-on-Everything project that blurs OS and VM boundaries to run Java applications without a traditional OS. Based in Broadview Heights, OH, he brings a rare mix of systems-level craftsmanship and cloud-native operations experience, and a history of shipping technologies years ahead of mainstream adoption.
