Summary
Jaylon Mcshan is a rising junior Computer Science major at the University of Houston and a pragmatic software engineer with two years of hands-on experience across security, backend, and QA roles. He has interned at HashiCorp and Kyndryl and improved production systems by automating processes, cutting database query times dramatically, and reducing cloud costs through Terraform provisioning. Comfortable across languages from Python and Java to Go and Rust, Jaylon builds microservices, optimizes security posture, and implements testing pipelines while thinking like both a developer and an analyst. Outside of code he balances analytical pursuits—chess and mystery novels—with creative discipline as a violinist, a blend that informs his methodical yet inventive approach to problem solving.
