Sandy Urazayev is a software engineer with eight years of hands-on experience spanning security, DevOps, and systems automation, currently working at a stealth AI startup after several roles in Microsoft Security. A computer science undergraduate at the University of Kansas with complementary degrees in mathematics and Slavic studies, he blends rigorous analytical training with practical engineering—everything from RFC-compliant APIs in Java/Go to optimizing parallel numerical jobs. He’s an active systems tinkerer and UNIX enthusiast who prefers solving problems at the terminal with awk, sed, and grep, and has applied that mindset to threat intelligence, formal verification for drone sensors, and production services serving tens of thousands of users. As CTO of the KU Information Security Club and a former startup co-founder, he pairs leadership and mentorship with shipping secure, auditable systems. Notably, his NCAR internship cut optimization runtimes from an hour to minutes, reflecting a knack for performance-focused engineering.
