“Platform-focused engineer/technical program leader working in silicon/wafer validation environments, with hands-on experience securing access to sensitive test results and engineering tooling. Has implemented RBAC/least-privilege controls with Azure Entra ID, Key Vault, PAM and integrated Checkmarx into dev workflows, while also deploying ML services on AKS using Bicep/Helm/Docker and Azure DevOps CI/CD with strong monitoring and incident response practices.”

“Backend/infra-focused engineer who owned production systems for distributed ML experimentation (hyperparameter tuning across a cluster with GPU scaling, custom scheduling, and checkpoint-based fault tolerance). Also built and operated a low-latency log validation service using queued async workflows with idempotency, retries/backoff, and strong observability, plus experience building resilient Selenium-based browser automations for complex multi-step web flows.”
