Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAmir Shehata is an HPC systems software engineer with seven years of focused experience building and integrating high-performance networking stacks for supercomputers, currently consulting at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He has deep kernel- and middleware-level expertise—designing and upstreaming MPI and libfabric integrations and architecting Lustre LNet features such as multi-rail routing and resiliency for large-scale storage systems. Prior roles at Intel and DATADIRECT involved hands-on LNet kernel development and customer-facing troubleshooting, while earlier work at Ericsson and embedded systems firms honed his low-level networking, real-time, and assembler skills. Amir contributes to open-source tooling (notably porting and enhancing the MB-Lab Blender addon with face and phoneme rigs), reflecting a rare blend of HPC infrastructure proficiency and creative full‑stack development. Based in Oak Ridge, TN, he pairs systems architecture and project leadership with a track record of moving features from customer requirements into upstream community releases.
