Message

At Nutanix, I integrate security tools and automation into the DevSecOps pipeline. I connected Qualys, Rapid7, and Tenable to API-driven vulnerability scanning and contributed to the vulnerability database and advisory system.

I designed API endpoints using AWS API Gateway, Lambda, and DocumentDB, and I design RESTful APIs with Python FastAPI. I also automated DAST scanning and onboarded 20+ applications.

At Nutanix, I authored Security Release Advisories, delivering 100+ critical updates annually. I also participated in security reviews and integrated Black Duck and Veracode scans into CI pipelines.

Earlier, at Nuance Communications, I automated security scans and built BDD test automation frameworks. At Imagination Technologies and Amdocs, I worked on GPU driver testing and software test automation, including scripts that saved 19 man hours per month at Nuance.
