What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build secure software at scale—implementing language frontends and automated static analysis, partnering with distributed teams, and owning integration testing and security practices so we ship faster with confidence.

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.
