Pankaj Gupta is a senior systems engineer with 8+ years of experience specializing in virtualization, Linux kernel development, and real-time systems, currently contributing at AMD from Berlin. He has a strong track record of upstream open-source contributions—most notably driving virtio-pmem into Linux 5.3—and deep expertise across QEMU/KVM, memory management, RT kernels, and networking subsystems. His background spans low-latency financial feed systems, enterprise security, PLM, and telephony, giving him a rare blend of kernel-level systems thinking and real-world product delivery. Comfortable in C and C++, he repeatedly bridges userspace and kernelspace to deliver performant, low-latency solutions. Colleagues know him as an open-source enthusiast who leverages upstream collaboration to turn niche device and virtualization work into widely adopted kernel features.
