He has deep hands-on expertise across threat modeling, security design reviews, cryptography and PCI requirements, with production experience in Java, Kotlin, Go, GCP and Kubernetes. His background includes hardening core cloud components at AWS—working on reactive hypervisor security and static analysis under high pressure—and building end-to-end security for IoT and mobile platforms.
