Summary
Patrick Dehkordi is a solutions architect with over two decades of hands-on experience across data center technology, embedded systems, and distributed networks, currently focusing on decentralized network problems like Ethereum scalability and performance. He blends low-level expertise—kernel hacking (NVMe/TCP), SoC/FPGA/ASIC design, and physical server architecture—with cloud and middleware experience (OpenStack, AWS/GCP, Nginx, Kafka) to design pragmatic, high-performance systems. His career spans roles from FPGA design and SoC application engineering to storage networking and field systems architecture, giving him a rare end-to-end view from silicon to services. Patrick has built a private CryptoNote-based cryptocurrency and private OpenStack cloud, reflecting a propensity to prototype full-stack alternatives rather than accept conventional answers. Known for finding unconventional solutions, he brings both deep technical rigor and a continual curiosity that drives exploration of emerging distributed systems challenges.
