Profile

About

DevSecOps Engineer with 9+ years of experience across DevOps, cloud engineering, and systems administration in healthcare and technology environments. Specialized in securing CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Bamboo), container and runtime security, Infrastructure-as-Code (AWS CloudFormation) scanning, and vulnerability management (SAST, DAST, SCA, SBOM) using CrowdStrike Falcon Cloud Security, Prisma Cloud, SonarQube, and Checkov. Proven record of embedding shift-left security practices across development teams, remediating audit findings across HIPAA, SOC 2, and SOC 3 assessments, and delivering ~$110K in annual AWS cost savings through FinOps automation. Hands-on applied AI/LLM engineering through independent projects, including building multi-agent coding pipelines on Claude Code with security-by-design gates such as automated STRIDE threat modeling.

Socratic Duck — Agentic AI Coding Pipeline

Solo Founder · Personal Side Project

Ongoing

Production-grade agentic AI coding pipeline on Claude Code with security-by-design gates.

  • Designed and built a production-grade agentic AI coding pipeline on Claude Code, orchestrating 15 specialized subagents through custom slash commands (/new-idea, /build-mvp, /quick-build) that take a software idea from concept to working MVP.
  • Engineered security-by-design into the AI workflow: a mandatory idea-framing gate, automated STRIDE threat modeling, and a UX approval gate before build stages — applying shift-left security principles to AI-assisted development.
  • Implemented a three-tier command system separating personal and commercial project workflows, using structured prompt engineering and multi-agent orchestration patterns for reliable, repeatable outputs; cut idea-to-MVP turnaround from weeks to days.
