Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatt Cross is a seasoned software engineer with 13+ years focused on low-level systems, embedded platforms, and high-performance network forwarding, now working at Meta after a long tenure at iRobot. He brings deep kernel internals expertise—virtual memory, drivers, and networking—paired with hands-on hardware interfacing and robotics experience. His career spans startups to large enterprises (Sun, ADC, iRobot, SeaChange) where he led and consulted on mission-critical system firmware and fast-path networking implementations. Matt is comfortable bridging hardware and software boundaries, often optimizing code paths that sit close to silicon rather than in userland. Based in Greenville, NH, he combines pragmatic engineering with a knack for making complex kernel and networking concepts operational in product contexts. Colleagues would note his rare blend of decades-long systems experience and the ability to move quickly from prototype to polished embedded solutions.
