Summary
Logan Schmalz is a graduate research assistant and dual BS/MS computer science and mathematics candidate with a decade of hands-on experience in systems, security, and high-performance computing. He blends practical engineering in Rust, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript, and Haskell with research in formal methods, remote attestation, and TPM2-backed key protections under IMA and SELinux. Previously as an intern security engineer he built security automation and data pipelines using Node.js, React, Python, MySQL, and Kubernetes, and he runs home servers with NGINX and Docker—demonstrating both production readiness and operational curiosity. Comfortable across Windows and Linux, he focuses on auditable, provable security properties rather than just defensive controls. Logan’s work bridges applied research and production tooling, aiming to make low-level platform guarantees usable for real-world systems. Based in the Kansas City area, he brings mathematical rigor to practical security engineering and systems design.
