Summary
🎓
Top SchoolCedric Miller is a curious and disciplined engineer with eight years of experience building secure, production-ready systems across cloud, defense, and consumer contexts. He blends hands-on DevSecOps, CI/CD hardening, and secure SDLC practices—having implemented pipeline security, artifact signing, and policy enforcement at scale for AWS, government, and enterprise customers. Cedric has a track record of porting and modernizing complex legacy systems (notably contributing Python 3 compatibility fixes to Mozilla’s Socorro crash pipeline used by Firefox at scale) and of designing reproducible GitOps/Kubernetes homelabs that integrate SBOMs, image policies, and automated promotions. Comfortable in both low-level embedded toolchains and high-level serverless services, he pairs programming fluency (Python, C++, Java) with infrastructure-as-code and testing automation. He’s pursuing formal cybersecurity study while actively building private AI agent orchestration and secure consulting automation, demonstrating a preference for practical, security-first engineering. Based in San Diego, he thrives at the intersection of computing and STEM to solve real-world problems with meticulous execution and strong collaboration skills.
