Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichael Heinz is a seasoned HPC and network software engineer with decades of hands-on experience spanning mainframes to modern fabrics, focused on C, Linux/Unix, InfiniBand and Omnipath. He has driven fabric management and middleware projects at Intel and startups, delivering performance-first designs—most notably leading an API redesign that enabled a 27x improvement in management throughput for live clusters. Equally comfortable writing low-level drivers and building operational tooling (Bash, Ansible, SLURM), he combines deep technical rigor with a commitment to usability and documentation born from long-term involvement in free software since the 1980s. Based in Phoenixville, PA, he pairs pragmatic systems administration skills with protocol and API design, and describes himself wryly as an “antique code monkey” who once performed as a clown for charity—an indication of both technical longevity and a playful, service-oriented personality.
