Brandonn Young
@brandonnyoung
I test SOC security platforms and diagnose autonomous systems through log analysis, vulnerability assessment, and structured troubleshooting.
What I'm looking for
At Scalewidth's Exertus Autonomous SOC Project, I conduct security assessments, validate security improvements, and document remediation recommendations for engineering stakeholders.
I'm also an Autonomous Systems Operator at Kodiak Robotics, where I monitor live hardware, software, and vehicle systems, reproduce defects, analyze logs, and document anomalies found through simulation and stress testing. I train new operators on safety protocols and troubleshooting workflows.
Previously, I supported mission-critical autonomous operations at Waymo/Transdev, collaborating with engineering teams on diagnostic logs, root-cause investigations, release validation, and technical reports.
I'm pursuing a B.S. in Information Systems & Cybersecurity with a 4.0 GPA while building hands-on security and IT practice through TryHackMe, Hack The Box, DVWA, vulnerability assessments, and a home lab.
