Principal Security Engineer • Backend Engineer (Python, Rust) • Distributed Systems
I build secure, scalable backend systems that power real products in high-risk, data-heavy environments.
- I design and own production services with a strong focus on security, performance, and reliability.
- I treat security and compliance as product constraints, not afterthoughts.
- I care about clean architectures, Vim, and systems that are easy to reason about and operate at scale.
- Languages: Rust, Python, Typescript, Bash (familiar with: C, PHP, Perl, Assembly)
- Backend: Axum, FastAPI, Django, Flask, Celery, Scrapy/Scrapyd
- Frontend: Astro, Vue, React, Tailwind CSS
- Infra: Docker, Vagrant, AWS (EC2, Fargate), CloudFormation
- Data: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Athena, ClickHouse, MongoDB, DynamoDB, Kafka, Redis, RabbitMQ
- CI: GitHub Actions, CircleCI, Travis CI, GitLab CI
- Practices: Agile, CI/CD, TDD, microservices, hexagonal architecture, Gitflow
- Security: compliance, vulnerability research, penetration testing, secure code review
