Summary
Nate B is a security-focused software engineer with nine years of experience building reliable systems from low-level OS and network code to web and payment platforms. Currently on GitHub’s Privacy team, he applies a strong computer science foundation—sharpened at UCSD and through tutoring—to practical security engineering and privacy work. His background includes payment and billing systems at Momentive and hands-on ops upgrades (Docker, AWS, DB migrations) for a high-usage university autograder, showing comfort with both infrastructure and application-level concerns. Nate enjoys deep technical topics like operating systems, programming languages, and algorithm implementation, and brings that curiosity to pragmatic security solutions. Outside of work he’s a self-described “spicy chicken sandwich enthusiast,” a small hint at a personality that pairs focused engineering with approachable human interests.
