Senior🎓
Top SchoolRafael Teixeira is a Lead Security Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience securing cloud-native environments, applications, and embedded systems from Brazil’s Rio Grande do Sul. He drives end-to-end vulnerability management, threat modeling, and pentesting while provisioning and tuning defensive platforms like EDR/XDR and SIEM, and builds automations that improve incident response and detection fidelity.

His research background in IoT, embedded systems, and reverse engineering informs pragmatic defenses for constrained devices and distributed systems. Beyond engineering, he brings teaching and mentoring experience and a curious blend of interests in music and philosophy that influence his creative approach to problem solving.
