I lead an organization at Red Hat of circa 250 engineers & managers who are dedicated to contributing the OpenStack community, building our product that derives from that upstream innovation, and serving our customers who consume it. This is likely one of the largest and most longstanding groups of OpenStack contributors in the industry.
