Stefan Reiter is a release-focused engineering lead with 10 years of experience shipping stable clients and coordinating cross-team integrations at VRChat, blending hands-on Unity and Node.js development with release management. Formerly a Linux software developer at Proxmox, he has deep low-level and virtualization expertise—contributing to QEMU/KVM work and to the swtpm TPM emulator by extending NVRAM backends and hardening setup tooling. Based in Vienna, he pairs systems-level hacking (kernels, VMs, shell tooling) with practical frontend/backend skills in Rust, C, JavaScript and Perl, and a taste for shader and game development. He’s comfortable working where virtual identity and real-world systems meet, and brings a pragmatic, security-minded approach to reliably shipping complex distributed software.
