# Swetha Srinivasan > Software Engineer at Google Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/swethasrinivasan Skilled in infrastructure security, Cloud Security, data sovereignty, System Software, Cloud software, Secure Systems Design ## Work Experience ### Staff Software Engineer @ Google Jan 2019 – Present | San Francisco Bay Area Technical lead - cloud infrastructure security. Delivered projects and received Cloud Technical Impact awards for: Key Rotation capability for Google Sovereign Cloud - Technical lead for the infrastructure built to rotate cryptographic key material to meet stringent sovereignty requirements to handoff cryptographic control to partner operated, isolated, sovereign Google cloud. - Achieved unprecedented expedited end-to-end rotation for root keys, equivalent to emergency key rotations unlocking the ability to quickly take control of such sovereign cloud universes and also for emergency responses in the event of key compromise - Automated the process to ease usage for external partners to perform key rotations when taking over the cloud region - Ensured rapid public key distribution to consumers of asymmetric key pairs in the production infrastructure, which requires ensuring security critical keys are rotated without compromising on reliability and availability of the fleet. - Set the agenda for multiple teams across Google, proposed solutions and designed components to deliver this capability. - This unblocked sovereign customer onboarding in the first Sovereign cloud offering in Paris and enabled further Google Cloud deals Enforcing Boot Integrity on Google Production machines - Ensured that if any data center machine boots software that deviates from the intended state, the machine cannot decrypt and perform operations with the credentials that it needs to operate within the fleet. - Designed and developed features to trigger automated repair actions by machine management infrastructure on such machines that deviate so that they cannot participate in workload scheduling until they run the intended boot stack. - As the technical lead of engineers on the team, led development of tools to monitor and debug machines without credentials that are otherwise unreachable through regular connectivity channels. - Drove security and reliability reviews ### Senior Member Of Technical Staff @ VMware Jan 2019 – Jan 2019 ### MTS 3 @ VMware Jan 2017 – Jan 2019 | San Francisco Bay Area Software Development of security features in VM Platform infrastructure at the Cloud Platform group.
