Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJason Wendel is a Senior Security Engineer based in Kansas City with over 14 years in IT and nine years focused in security roles, currently strengthening defenses at FireMon. He brings deep network engineering chops from hands-on roles at Cerner and long-running operational leadership as CTO of KCGameOn, where he architected and operated large temporary networks and event infrastructure for 400+ users. Jason blends practical systems experience—DHCP, DNS, caching, dedicated game servers, monitoring—with security-first thinking to deliver reliable, auditable networks. He’s comfortable moving between day-to-day incident response and longer-term architecture work, and his background running live event ops gives him a pragmatic edge for resilience under pressure. A UMKC computer science graduate, he pairs enterprise security experience with a maker’s instinct for building robust, scalable infrastructure.
