I build enterprise server BMC firmware and OpenBMC management capabilities for IBM Power and Dell PowerEdge platforms.

I've built enterprise server BMC firmware for IBM Power Systems and Dell PowerEdge platforms, including OpenBMC management capabilities, Redfish APIs, PLDM-over-MCTP communication, and end-to-end BMC bring-up for IBM Power E1080 servers.

At Dell Technologies, I developed a Virtual MUX framework for BMC-to-HMC hardware access and improved iDRAC Entity Manager for NVIDIA platform integration. I've also reduced unnecessary D-Bus signal emissions by about 50% to improve iDRAC boot time, contributed to core OpenBMC components, and mentored engineers on firmware architecture and debugging.
