Michael Hinton is a software engineer specializing in workload emulation and scheduling with a decade of experience building and supporting low-level systems for HPC and enterprise platforms. He helped develop and maintain Slurm at SchedMD, giving him deep expertise in Linux workload management, and now focuses on workload emulation at Intel. His academic work — a master’s thesis on mitigating inter-core interference using the Jailhouse hypervisor — reflects a practical blend of embedded hypervisor tooling and performance isolation. Early internships at SanDisk/Fusion-io and Intel NSG involved FPGA/PCIe and SSD platform work, showing comfort across hardware/software boundaries. Based in Provo, UT, he’s a curious engineer who enjoys both kernel-adjacent systems programming and web technologies, and who has a track record of shipping pragmatic solutions in production HPC environments.
