Timothy Buckley is a software engineer with 13 years of experience focused on backend development, developer tooling, and security engineering. He currently builds secure infrastructure access features at Teleport, contributing notable work around SAML/PingID authentication, SSH host certificate configuration, and Terraform Cloud onboarding. Previously at Hewlett Packard Enterprise he honed large-scale engineering practices and shipped production systems while rising from intern to senior engineer. An active open-source maintainer, he publishes libraries for embedded hardware and smart-home integrations used in his custom home automation projects. Based in Fort Collins, Colorado, he pairs practical systems thinking with a curiosity for experimenting in both cloud security and low-level device tooling. Notably, he blends hands-on security work with hobbyist hardware development, giving him a rare full-stack-to-firmware perspective.
