Sri Ramkrishna has had a colorful and varied career. He started in Enterprise IT, spending 15 years crawling under servers in datacenters, writing tools, and managing enterprise-class storage before moving into professional open source. Since then, Sri has worn many hats — developer advocate, community builder, event organizer — alongside technical roles like firmware QA and building open-hardware servers on open toolchains.
