I'm Intel's Chrome OS Architect; I serve as the technical lead for Intel Chromebooks, particularly on the software side. I particularly enjoy that I get to work on entire systems top-to-bottom: hardware, firmware, kernel, userspace, browser, apps/web... We get to work on problems like "How could this technology make Chrome OS or the web better?", or conversely "What technology could we create to solve this problem that Chrome OS or the web faces?".
I've also found it awesome building up and working with several exceptional teams.
(Note: on HN and elsewhere, I don't speak for Intel unless explicitly stated otherwise.)
> How did you get to that point?
I came in to interview for a completely different position, and found myself in the right place at the right time with the right skillset, and I was open to work on anything sufficiently interesting and challenging.
It helped that I already had extensive experience in the Open Source community. Also, Intel as an employer values and rewards graduate education.
