Arthur Rasmusson is a kernel programmer, virtualization, and machine learning engineer specializing in GPU drivers, and AI inference. Arthur Rasmusson’s experience spans open and close source software development where he has held the roles of Founding Engineer, Principal AI Engineer, and Machine Learning Engineer. As Founding Engineer of Arc Compute, he authored open‑source documentation, and GPU virtualization software for the Open-IOV project. At Cohere, his work on Just‑In‑Time-Inference and Just-In-Time-Training reduced auto-scaling latencies by orders of magnitude by introducing the use of GPUDirect Storage API for real-time scaling of hardware allocations in hybrid training and inference environments to meet customer demand and maximize utilization. Prior to joining Weka he introduced Paged Attention over RDMA (PAoR) to the open source AI community used distributed filesystems in GPU clusters to improve LLM performance by saving wasted computational resources spent on redundant cache data generation in open‑source inference servers delivering orders‑of‑magnitude performance gains at scale. At Weka, as Principal AI Engineer, he authored the open‑source software behind AI “token warehouses” with upstream source code contribution to the open-source TensorRT-LLM project adding the “KV Cache GPUDirect Storage” feature, and implementing Python native support for GPUDirect Storage APIs used in LMCache for the vLLM ecosystem. Arthur Rasmusson’s work bridges low-level systems concepts with high‑performance data paths for AI.

Michał has been at 3mdeb for 4 years and has worked on x86 boot firmware for laptops, desktops and network appliances, as well as developed Linux kernel drivers and firmware security features. He has an interest in all things open source and enjoys hacking and/or bricking hardware in his free time.

Michał Żygowski is a versatile engineer with a strong focus on system firmware. Works as a firmware engineer at 3mdeb . Active contributor of coreboot and other open-source projects. Core coreboot developer, maintainer of Braswell SoC, PC Engines, Protectli and MSI platforms. Loves travelling and attending conferences, which actively speaks on. Mainly interested in the firmware, security and advanced hardware features.

Piotr Król is an open-source firmware enthusiast who founded 3mdeb in March 2015. His expertise is rooted in the hacker ethos of collaborative innovation and transparency, guiding 3mdeb's focus on projects like Zarhus OS, a Yocto-based Embedded Linux distribution, and Dasharo, a coreboot downstream project. These projects are dedicated to open development, embedded firmware resilience, platform security, transparency, the right to repair, and digital sovereignty.

Piotr's deep involvement in open-source firmware includes key computing areas such as Root of Trust, Secure, Verified and Measured Boot, TPM, coreboot, UEFI, EDK II, Yocto, U-Boot, and Linux. He often speaks at significant industry events like FOSDEM, Xen Developers Summit, and Platform Security Summit, sharing his insights and promoting the open-source firmware ecosystem. Piotr is dedicated to sharing knowledge by serving as a Trainer at OpenSecurityTraining2, offering free and open educational materials to advance the open-source firmware ecosystem.
