Igor Ustinov, Senior Software Engineer, OpenSSL Foundation

I have been involved with the OpenSSL project for two decades. Earlier this year, I became an OpenSSL committer. I am nominating myself to represent the Committer Community.

For the past year, I have served on the OpenSSL Foundation Technical Advisory Committee as a representative of the Individuals Community. This experience has given me a good understanding of the Foundation's advisory process and of how community perspectives can contribute to its work.

As both an active developer and a committer, I am closely involved in the day-to-day technical work of the OpenSSL project. I believe this perspective would be valuable to the Foundation Advisory Committee, particularly in helping maintain a strong connection between the Foundation and the people directly involved in developing and maintaining OpenSSL.

Having already served on the Technical Advisory Committee, I would also bring continuity to the newly combined Advisory Committee while representing the Committer Community in my new role.
