Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew K is a Senior Information Security Engineer based in Cork with a decade of hands-on experience blending software development, DevOps, and application security across industries from industrial automation to endpoint protection. He has moved seamlessly between roles—implementing secure SDLC practices at Johnson Controls, building kernel-level endpoint features and CI/CD at Forcepoint, and researching adaptable access control for ZT IoT networks during his PhD—demonstrating both product-level engineering and academic rigor. Comfortable in C/C++, Python and a broad DevOps toolchain (Jenkins, CircleCI, Azure, Intune), he focuses on embedding security into the entire delivery lifecycle rather than treating it as an afterthought. Known for pushing changes straight to production, he pairs practical deployment experience with vulnerability assessment, threat modeling and secure-architecture work. Notably, he has designed open-source compliance tooling during his masters and tutored postgraduate cybersecurity students, highlighting a rare mix of teaching, research and production impact.
