Top School

Yusheng Zheng is a systems-focused software engineer and PhD student at UC Santa Cruz with seven years’ experience building open-source tooling around eBPF, kernel tracing, and runtime systems. He founded eunomia-bpf (eunomia.dev), the popular eBPF project with 5k+ stars, and has led development of BPF programs, userspace runtimes (DPDK/XDP), and toolchains while mentoring small teams. His background spans OS-level work—including adding syscalls and documenting a Rust microkernel—and static analysis tooling using Clang/Infer, showing a mix of low-level systems engineering and developer ergonomics. Based in London and originally trained in Geographic Information Science at Zhejiang University, he combines academic research rigor with hands-on open-source product building. Notably, he pairs deep kernel-level expertise with a playful, curious open-source persona that fuels practical, well-documented projects.
