Senior🎓
Top SchoolGaurav Sachdev is a Sr. Analyst in Information Security with eight years of experience blending hands-on development and security research, currently at Eli Lilly after completing an MS in Information Security at Purdue (3.96 GPA). His work spans secure software practices, geospatial data tooling, and human factors in cybersecurity—his master's thesis focused on usability and risk in the Healthcare and Public Health sector. At Purdue he modernized geospatial workflows (upgrading legacy Python2 tools to interactive Python3 notebooks and improving precision by 50%) and built reusable framework components to accelerate research. Early roles in consulting and industry exposed him to ISO/NIST compliance, penetration testing, and automation, while internships delivered measurable process improvements (e.g., 12% cost reduction via optimization). Comfortable across research, engineering, and security operations, he brings a pragmatic, user-centered approach to making secure systems more usable and reproducible.
