Senior🎓
Top SchoolShawn Guo is a Senior Staff Engineer with 15+ years specializing in Linux kernel development for ARM SoCs and a long-standing i.MX platform maintainer since 2011. He has deep hands-on experience across kernel subsystems and drivers (Device Tree, clocks, pinctrl, DMA, Ethernet, USB, audio, DRM/KMS, power management) and has successfully upstreamed SoC support and boot optimizations for multiple vendors. At Linaro he led cross-company FOSS upstreaming efforts for ZTE and HiSilicon platforms and helped bring a HiSilicon-based board into AOSP as an Android TV reference. His contributions extend beyond the kernel into Arm Trusted Firmware, U-Boot, EDK2, OP-TEE and Mesa, reflecting a full-stack firmware-to-userspace muscle. Based in Suzhou, he combines low-level silicon bring-up experience with long-term open-source stewardship, making him adept at aligning vendor hardware with upstream community practices.
