Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJuerg Haefliger is a veteran kernel engineer with 26 years of experience translating electrical engineering rigor into production-grade Linux kernel and storage solutions. He has led kernel development and maintenance at Canonical and HPE, owning Ubuntu Raspberry Pi kernels, upstream backports, crash-dump analysis and Secure Boot delivery for large-scale cloud and server products. Juerg combines deep hardware knowledge (SCSI/SAS/SSD, processor architectures, firmware) with extensive low-level software expertise (C, assembly, drivers, live-patching, virtualization and kernel security features). He is a pragmatic open-source collaborator who has open-sourced tooling for cloud and security workflows and driven internal best practices like kernel handbooks and cross-team processes. Based in Switzerland and holding MS/PhD credentials from ETH Zürich, he’s as comfortable debugging kernel crashes as he is designing hardware bring-up and automation for complex delivery pipelines.
