Levente Kurusa is a systems software engineer with 12 years of experience focused on low-level OS work, having contributed to Darwin/CoreOS at Apple and the Linux kernel at Red Hat and now working on OS research and as CTO at a startup. He’s an active open-source contributor — notably to the nanovms/nanos unikernel where he improved process management, implemented getdents(2), and added filesystem write and virtio storage support. Comfortable in both C and functional paradigms, he has a sustained interest in Haskell and functional programming which informs his approach to robust, composable systems. Based in Budapest, he combines production kernel engineering with research instincts and a habit of engaging with developer communities (lkurusa on IRC).
