Profile

Software engineering and computer security are two sides of the same coin. I am a competent software engineer and penetration tester, utilizing best practices in both fields. I have been working remote since 2017 and been loving it.

Software Developer

First non-founding employee of Tenex Developers.

Worked remotely on multiple projects requiring both full-stack and DevOps skills. At Tenex I was project lead on two projects, one Angular and Ruby on Rails application and one Python Flask machine learning application. I also worked to migrate projects from various cloud hosting services to k8s running on Google Cloud. My favorite aspect of the work was working remotely and being largely independent. From a technical aspect I really enjoyed working with Ruby on Rails and Python scikit-learn.
