Senior software engineer specializing in static program analysis and automated vulnerability detection to ship secure code faster.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Software Engineer with about 9 years of experience building secure software through static program analysis and automated vulnerability detection. I specialize in implementing language frontends and JVM ecosystem capabilities, with a focus on Static Application Security Testing and Software Composition Analysis.
At Kunai, I implemented and maintained language frontends—especially in C#—to enhance automated software vulnerability analysis capabilities. I collaborated with teams to ensure compatibility between frontends and vulnerability analysis stages, while improving security practices across multiple projects.
At Vestmark, I advanced program analysis methods to strengthen application security and optimize performance. I contributed to the design and development of large integration test suites, and I drove measurable impact by achieving a 30% reduction in vulnerabilities across applications.
Earlier at Fidelity Investments, I worked on compiler programming and automated software vulnerability analysis, partnering with security researchers to support compliance with industry standards and best practices. I’ve built a track record of deep technical problem-solving, clear communication, and knowledge transfer—because “building security into the DNA of every release” is how I deliver reliable outcomes and faster, safer software.
