Peter Loi Membrey (born January 20, 1983) is a British engineer and lecturer.
Membrey has published a number of papers in peer-reviewed conferences and recently received the IEEE Computer Society "Distinguished Contributor" award for his contributions.[1][2]
He is currently a member of numerous professional organizations, including the British Computer Society, the IEEE, IT Professional New Zealand,[3] the Hong Kong Computer Society and Engineering New Zealand.
Early life and education[edit]
Membrey was born on January 20, 1983, in Plymouth, United Kingdom. He passed the Red Hat Certified Engineer Exam (RHCE) at age 17 and went to work after that, ultimately working full-time at Red Hat itself.[4]
After moving to Hong Kong to be with his wife, he studied for an MSc. in Information Technology at the University of Liverpool, graduating with distinction in 2010. Originally studying Software Engineering, he switched to Information Security as he found it to be far more interesting.[citation needed]
In November 2010, he joined Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU)[5] and began his Ph.D. studies in agile software engineering, but later transferred to the recently available Engineering Doctorate. He successfully defended his thesis, Evaluating Timing Fundamentals for IoT Devices in August 2022.[6]
During his time there, he ran a number of workshops (and assisted others) for first-year students over the summer, which he prepared and led. He has been invited to speak at PolyU a number of times and gave an open talk on Enterprise Linux in industry, which was a collaboration between the Computing Department and The IET.
Membrey is affiliated with a number of professional bodies. Currently, he is a Chartered Fellow of the British Computer Society, a Chartered Engineer and a Fellow of the Institution of Analysts and Programmers, a Chartered Member of Engineering New Zealand, a member of ITP New Zealand, and a full member of the Hong Kong Computer Society.[7]
Career[edit]
Membrey began his career at St Boniface's College, where he successfully converted the network to run on Red Hat Linux. This caught the attention of Dr. Malcolm Herbert who was at BECTA at the time, and lead to joint project work and a full time role at NEW College in 2001, after Herbert joined Red Hat.
He held numerous education roles, ending up as a network support engineer at Bournville College before joining the John David Group. A year later, he joined Red Hat as a full-time engineer. He remained at Red Hat until he left the UK to move to Hong Kong in 2008.
In 2010, Membrey joined Eclipse Trading as a trading systems engineer, where he was promoted to a senior developer and became the team lead for core services in 2014. He worked on designing and building a custom market data platform in Erlang that used leveraged FIXFAST encoding, conflation, and subscriptions to deliver entire market feeds over small WAN links.
Membrey has also been working as project lead for the CakeDB Project which he founded in 2012. He designed and developed CakeDB to solve real-world challenges for sharing high-speed data from low latency applications. It was successfully used in a production environment but the project is currently dormant.[8]
