Senior Application Security Engineer
Software engineer building secure cloud-native systems,
developer tooling and resilient application platforms.

> About

I work at the intersection of software engineering, application security and cloud architecture.

My focus is turning security from a final checkpoint into a native part of how software is designed, built, deployed and operated.

  • Application security and secure software architecture
  • AWS cloud engineering and infrastructure automation
  • Security testing, threat modelling and DevSecOps
  • TypeScript, Python and backend platform development
  • Cybersecurity education and community development

> Core Systems

Application Security Cloud Engineering Software Development DevSecOps
Threat modelling AWS architecture TypeScript CI/CD security
Secure code review Serverless systems Python SAST and DAST
OWASP testing Infrastructure as Code Node.js Dependency security
API security Containers Backend systems Security automation

> Engineering Philosophy

Security should not live at the end of the pipeline.

It should exist in the architecture,
the source code,
the deployment process,
the infrastructure
and the decisions engineers make every day.
