Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolVadim Rozenfeld is a Principal Software Engineer based in New South Wales with 16 years of experience designing and delivering complex Windows paravirtualized drivers and host back-end components for virtualization stacks. At Red Hat he architects and implements storage, memory management and host‑guest communication drivers (WDK/WDF/Storport/Scsiport/WDDM/NDIS), and contributes to QEMU/SPICE audio and Hyper‑V enlightenment for KVM. His open-source contributions include low-level work on virtio-win drivers and automation of driver packaging, reflecting a blend of systems programming and build/automation expertise. Earlier roles in embedded motion control and medical imaging honed his real‑time, multithreaded and device‑driver skills across C/C++, assembly and .NET. He pairs deep kernel- and hardware-level knowledge with practical scripting and automation to keep complex driver ecosystems reproducible and up-to-date. An uncommon strength is his track record of improving both runtime behavior (power states, storage resizing) and the developer toolchain that ships those drivers.
