Matei David is a software engineer at Buoyant and one of the maintainers of the Linkerd project, the CNCF's graduated service mesh. Passionate about open source, Matei got involved in the cloud native space early on in his career. As a Community Bridge Mentee (a CNCF program for young engineers) he worked on topology-aware service routing for Linkerd — an opportunity that led him to join the Buoyant team permanently. Since then he has become a project maintainer and you can often find him helping community members on the Linkerd Slack.
