Senior Systems & Security Engineer at Microsoft | Windows/Linux Kernel | Virtualization, Containers & Trusted Computing | Building Secure AI Infrastructure

About

- I am a systems and security engineer with 12+ years of experience building and debugging software across Windows, Linux, Android, RTOS and embedded SoCs. - My work has covered Windows kernel components and containers, Linux kernel and DSP bring-up, hypervisor-backed secure workloads, trusted VM communication, RPC frameworks and cross-stack Android platform debugging. I have worked at Microsoft, Qualcomm and Samsung on products ranging from flagship mobile platforms to core operating-system components. - I specialize in problems that cross component boundaries: kernel failures, platform security, virtualization, secure communication, system integration and difficult production triage. - I am currently expanding this foundation into Azure, confidential computing and secure AI infrastructure, with an interest in building reliable and auditable AI-enabled systems.
