Kyoungho An is a Staff Software Engineer and researcher at RTI with over a decade of experience designing and shipping distributed real-time systems and middleware. He has progressed through research and engineering roles at RTI, leading SBIR-funded projects totaling over $1M and building production-focused tooling such as a Go binding for DDS and a Telegraf plugin for monitoring DDS-based systems. His work blends cloud-native lifecycle management (Docker, Kubernetes) with health monitoring using time-series databases, reflecting deep expertise in operationalizing complex distributed deployments. A Vanderbilt PhD, he pairs academic rigor with hands-on engineering, often translating research prototypes into customer-ready releases and patches. Based in Nashville, he brings a rare combination of protocol-level DDS knowledge and practical systems integration skills that accelerate adoption in industrial and embedded domains.
