Summary
Kevin Nguyen is a Technical Lead and Senior SDET based in Austin with eight years of experience building reliable backend services, test automation, and observability for cloud-native environments. At Trend Micro he combines hands-on engineering with Scrum Master responsibilities to drive quality, delivery cadence, and cross-functional collaboration. His background spans AWS-backed monitoring (CloudWatch, Datadog), RESTful API development, and hardware-interfacing LabVIEW systems from his research days—an unusual blend of software test rigor and low-level instrumentation control.
