My first contribution to KernelCI was the automated bisection tool in
2017, followed by the blueprints for the new API (now called Maestro)
and more advanced bisection at LPC 2019 before focusing on Chromebook
enablement at every level, from Depthcharge to a scalable LAVA lab
with a dedicated instance running Chrome OS user-space.  In parallel,
I was the initial TSC chair and then Board chair from 2020 to 2023
during which time I initiated the Sysadmin WG (now Infrastructure),
the community survey, the new API roadmap as well as the RFP for the
new web dashboard.  Since I stepped down in early 2024, the KernelCI
team has been through a healthy renewal while I pursued my own path
and worked on a fork of the API called Renelick with several
use-cases related to automated kernel testing in the continuation of
my earlier work.

As of today, I can dedicate some time to contribute relevant
experience from an independent point of view and also expand the
outreach of the project via my growing involvement with the LF Energy
community since Linux is also present in electrical grids.

Best wishes,
Guillaume
