Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Mcclelland is a software engineer with 9 years of experience building distributed systems and security solutions at Microsoft and performance-critical software at Ericsson. Currently a Software Engineer II on Microsoft's Mixed Reality team, he develops backend services that enable AR/VR products across HoloLens, IVAS, and Mesh, bringing cloud-scale engineering to immersive scenarios. Previously he architected security features for Teams, M365 Groups, and SharePoint using Azure, AD, and Microsoft Graph, blending security-first thinking with product-focused delivery. His early work at Ericsson reduced algorithm execution time by 35% and led cross-functional teams to analyze multi-core performance on 4G/5G platforms, reflecting a strong systems and optimization pedigree. A Queen’s University computer engineering graduate, he pairs hands-on low-level performance tuning with cloud-native service design—an uncommon hybrid that helps bridge device constraints and large-scale cloud infrastructure.
