Kris Moore is the Vice President of Engineering for iXsystems. Kris is an experienced executive with a demonstrated history of working in the computer software industry and is closely involved in the TrueNAS Open Storage community. He holds strong information technology skills and expertise in Shell scripting, C++, operating systems, FreeBSD, and system administration. He started learning about open source in the 90’s where he was involved in developing web services using a very early version of FreeBSD. From that experience, he learned the basics of shell interface and how to check his e-mail without a GUI by using the “pine” command, which according to him, “was very uber-l33t” at the time. During his college years, Kris played around with other Unix and Linux platforms (caldera Linux, SuSE), however when he needed to do serious work, such as setting up a web or file server, he always fell back to his FreeBSD roots. To this day, he still prefers FreeBSD because it offers a greater degree of stability than other operating systems.
