Scott Lystig Fritchie was a UNIX systems administrator until he returned to programming full-time at Sendmail, Inc. His focus the last 15 years has been distributed storage systems: design, implementation, and checking their correctness. He has had papers published by USENIX, the Erlang User Conference, and the ACM and has given presentations at Erlang Factory and Ricon. He is co-chair of the 2017 ACM Erlang Workshop (to be held in Oxford, UK) and will probably ask you to submit a paper for the workshop.
