In fact, his children were often spotted behind him during video calls throughout the day.
While he was passionate about his work and his team, he loved his family even more. He was a transformational leader that has left his legacy here. It was a project he led from vision to reality, after many – even members of his own team – had told him the path to success was impossible. This was the week his team unveiled significant new enhancements across the LFX platform. At the same time, he was incredibly ambitious – wanting to build a platform that would not only transform The Linux Foundation but support open source development communities around the world. We also knew Shubhra as a selfless leader – one who was more interested in the work than the reward. He was so proud of the world class team he had built here, and did that in part with engineers who followed him from one organization to another throughout his career. His humble spirit and ever-present smile was admired by all around him. Above all, Shubhra was the kind of leader who quickly passed the credit for accomplishments to his team over himself. Those who had the honor to work with him will know, he was a special leader and a wonderful human being.
Our CTO, Shubhra Kar, passed away suddenly while he was with his entire LF family at our first in-person, all-hands gathering since before the pandemic. This past week, we lost our dear friend, colleague, and a true champion of the open source community.
