Designed and built identity and access management (IAM) systems, including SCIM-compliant provisioning, lifecycle automation, and fine-grained authorization models powering enterprise integrations with external Identity Providers.

Played a key role in the design and adoption of Service Accounts, driving 35% growth in secure automation usage across CI/CD and cloud-native environments.

Architected fine-grained access control using Object-Data Access (ODA/OD) models, enabling secure permissioning across distributed systems while enforcing least-privilege principles.

Designed and implemented end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) services, leveraging symmetric and asymmetric cryptography, hashing, key derivation, and the Noise Protocol to secure data and transport layers.

Led work on secrets management and secure credential handling, including secure storage, access enforcement, rotation workflows, and service-to-service authentication for cloud-native and CI/CD environments.

Delivered Confidential Computing solutions using AWS Nitro Enclaves, contributing to zero-trust architecture initiatives and secure workload isolation.

Built and operated security-critical distributed systems in Go, optimized for high throughput, fault tolerance, and reliability using Go’s native concurrency primitives.

Contributed to security-focused developer tooling such as the 1Password CLI, Connect Server, and integrations enabling secure secrets usage across cloud-native and CI/CD pipelines (1Password Terraform Provider, Kubernetes Operator, Helm Charts, Pulumi Provider, SDKs)

Designed and implemented a microservices-based architecture, translating business requirements into reliable, production-ready systems.

Built and operated backend services using Node.js, backed by PostgreSQL and message queues, with a focus on reliability and scalability.

Introduced and maintained CI/CD pipelines, enabling automated testing, deployment, and safer iteration across services.

Worked across the stack — backend services, APIs, and supporting infrastructure — gaining hands-on experience with cloud-native system design on AWS.

Collaborated closely with product and engineering stakeholders in a fast-moving startup environment, developing strong ownership and system-level thinking.
