Summary
Emmanuel Sogelola is a Security Engineer at Twitch with nine years of hands-on software engineering experience and a B.Tech in Software Engineering Technology from McMaster University. He blends product-minded engineering with security practice, having shipped user-facing mobile features and backend optimizations across Twitch and Wealthsimple while now focusing on SIRT work. His internships span fintech, observability, and automation—work that includes GraphQL performance improvements, Airflow DAGs for HRIS integrations, and replacing legacy CI with GitHub Actions—showing a talent for pragmatic automation and scale. Based in New York, he’s equally comfortable prototyping in Figma and React Native as he is building backend data pipelines, and he likes to “build something fun” in public. Notably, his background includes both production iOS feature delivery and operational tooling that reduced idle infrastructure and sped up test suites, reflecting a rare mix of product, security, and devops instincts.
