Summary
Chris Druta is a Cyber Security Engineer II with nine years of experience building resilient, automated systems across security, backend services, and developer tooling. A University of Arizona double major in Electrical & Computer Engineering and Applied Mathematics, he blends deep technical rigor with practical UX sensibilities—having built IoT firmware, Python microservices, and front-end tooling. At Qualtrics he owned a widely used Python library, reduced CI/CD build times by over 60%, led dead-letter handling and observability improvements, and served as a de facto security champion. Comfortable across full stack, DevOps, and data engineering domains, he routinely bridges gaps between tooling, testing, and operational reliability. Based in Seattle, he pairs a love of math and music with a knack for turning messy legacy systems into documented, auditable, and efficient production services.
