I’m a Senior AppSec Engineer building secure, accessible AI applications.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a seasoned Application Security Engineer and emerging AI engineer, bridging secure software development with cutting-edge AI applications. Over five years of experience leading bug bounty programs, mentoring engineers, and building security champion communities for Fortune 500 companies, I focus on making products “secure by design” without slowing teams down.
At Shutterstock, I currently serve as a Senior Application Security Engineer, leveraging deep security expertise to ensure AI solutions are innovative, ethical, and secure. I’ve also driven secure design reviews, threat modeling, and shift-left DevSecOps practices (including SAST and SCA initiatives), and I’m now building AI-driven applications and agents using MLOps tools like MLFlow and Langfuse, along with AI agent frameworks such as CrewAI and Agno AI.
