Harold Newman is a software engineer with nine years of technical experience who combines a hands-on electronics background with formal CS training (B.S. in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Magna Cum Laude) to modernize mission-critical systems. He transitioned from seven-plus years as an offshore electronics technician to software after teaching himself Java to solve a real-world problem, a practical mindset that fuels his work. At Naval Information Warfare Center Atlantic he delivered measurable impact—designing .NET Core APIs that improved performance by 50%, automating HIPAA-compliant reporting to shrink processing from days to hours, and building Vue.js dashboards for stakeholders. Now at Boeing, he continues applying DevSecOps and secure software development practices while holding an active DoD Secret clearance with Top Secret adjudication. He’s also a mentor and collaborator who enjoys reverse-engineering legacy apps and containerizing environments with Docker, bringing both field-tested grit and security-focused rigor to engineering challenges.
