Steve Gordon

Red Hat
Principal Product Manager
Toronto, Canada
Geographically displaced Australian. Focused on building infrastructure solutions for compute use cases using a spectrum of virtualization, containerization, and bare-metal provisioning technologies. Stephen is currently a Principal Product Manager at Red Hat based in Toronto, Canada.

He got his start in Open Source while building out and managing web-based solutions for the Earth Systems Science Computational Centre (ESSCC) at the University of Queensland. After graduating with degrees in Information Technology and Commerce Stephen took a multi-year detour into the wonderful world of the z-Series mainframe while writing new COBOL applications for the Australian Tax Office (ATO).

Stephen then landed at Red Hat where he has grown his knowledge of the infrastructure space working across multiple roles and solutions at the intersection of the Linux virtualization stack (KVM, QEMU, Libvirt), OpenStack, and more recently Kubernetes. Now he is working with a team attempting to realize a vision for unification of application containers and virtual machines enabled by the KubeVirt project.

Stephen has previously presented on a variety of infrastructure topics at OpenStack Summit, multiple Red Hat Summit, KVM Forum, OpenStack Days Canada, OpenStack Silicon Valley, and local meetups.
