- CI/CD security automation and developer-facing security workflows (SAST/SCA, secrets scanning, IaC scanning, container scanning).
- Software supply chain controls (SBOM, artifact/image signing and verification, provenance and promotion workflows).
- Kubernetes policy enforcement and admission controls (policy-as-code) that encode platform security guardrails.
- Co-own AWS security guardrails with Platform/SRE (IAM patterns, logging and detection, network and encryption baselines).
- Partner with Security/GRC on control interpretation and evidence needs; implements controls in engineering systems and pipelines.
