Name: Fabiano Fidêncio Email: fabiano@fidencio.org Background: I am a Software Engineer, a tattoo canvas for abstract art, a music addict, a goats and pigs instagram follower, and a big fan of old video games. In the past 18 months I dedicated a huge chunk of my professional and personal time contributing to the Kata Containers project and community, with a strong focus on helping Red Hat to build a product from the Kata Containers project. My involvement with Kata Containers has been intense. I've been involved on pretty much every part of the project, on projects Kata Containers interacts with. Moreover, I've already been serving the community as a current member of the Kata Containers Architecture Committee. In the enterprise world, I have worked on making the upstream project a Red Hat's downstream product, passing by Fedora, CentOS, Red Hat CoreOS, and OpenShift components. As a result of this effort Red Hat now has an official product which uses Kata Containers underneath. In the community space, I also have helped on a lot of different parts of the project. connected people to have their problems solved, mentored both newcomers and students into our community, led Architecture Committee meetings, led the last vPTG's Kata Containers session. I also went hands-on on CI, code-reviewing, development focusing on easing the adoption of the project, managed the past and current releases, and have been working as much as possible to grow this community in a healthy way. My main motivations are still to increase Kata Containers adoption in the industry, while ensuring the project is stable and easily consumable. This is more important now than ever as new players are adopting and contributing to the Kata Containers project. To make it possible, I plan to continue working in the integration bits, while connecting and facilitating the communication between the Kata Containers community and the communities that I am part of. On a side note, I'd like to mention that from November 1st, 2021, I'll be working for Intel, focusing on the Kata Containers project.
