Software Engineer at GitHub
Austin, Texas, United States
Summary
🤩
RockstarTrevor Rosen is a seasoned software engineer with 15 years of experience specializing in supply chain security and embedded systems, currently working on supply chain security engineering at GitHub and serving on the sigstore TSC. He brings a strong security pedigree from roles at SolarWinds, Rapid7, and Metasploit, combining offensive and defensive perspectives to harden development pipelines. Based in Austin, he pairs low-level hardware expertise—demonstrated by significant contributions to the gobot Golang robotics/IoT framework, GPIO control on Beaglebone, drone motion commands, and MQTT adaptor improvements—with cloud-native security tooling. Trevor is comfortable navigating both firmware-level constraints and large-scale software supply chains, making him effective at connecting device engineering to secure DevOps practices. Notably, his background in robotics and drone control informs pragmatic threat modelling for interconnected IoT systems that often sit outside traditional security perimeters.
