PROFILE

Daniel Swarbrick

Worked on the prometheus/node_exporter and prometheus/alertmanager repositories, focusing on performance, maintainability, and reliability in Go-based network and system programming. Delivered ARP collector optimizations by refactoring to a higher-level rtnetlink wrapper and introducing an internal cache, which reduced system calls and improved scalability while preserving metrics accuracy. Enhanced TCP statistics collection by replacing a third-party endianness helper with Go’s standard binary.NativeEndian, simplifying the codebase and improving cross-platform robustness. In prometheus/alertmanager, updated CA certificate test data to reduce TLS-related test fragility and added human-readable x509 certificate outputs, demonstrating skills in Go, certificate management, and security-focused test engineering.

August 2025: Focused refactor in prometheus/node_exporter to improve endianness handling in TCP statistics collection by adopting Go's native binary.NativeEndian. Replaced a third-party dependency, reducing maintenance and failure points, and aligning with Go idioms. Resulting in more robust, cross-architecture metrics collection and a cleaner codebase.
