Margarita Manterola is a seasoned staff-level software engineer and engineering leader with 11 years of experience specializing in Debian, Linux, and open source systems, and strong hands-on skills in Python and Go. She has managed and coordinated large technical teams—from directing a 25-person organization focused on Cilium’s datapath to leading core/kernel engineering at Igalia—and has deep production experience with eBPF, Kubernetes, and fleet management. Her career includes migrating Google’s internal distro from Ubuntu to Debian and contributing to container OS work that preceded Microsoft's acquisition of Flatcar, demonstrating both operational rigor and systems design expertise. Based in Mering, Bavaria, she blends people leadership with low-level engineering, often operating at the intersection of kernel, networking, and cloud-native tooling. Not actively seeking opportunities, she remains a pragmatic steward of open systems and resilient infrastructure.
