Proof, not promises.
Every project below shipped: work from 6+ years at Microsoft, my own full-stack products, Morgan Stanley, and published research. Microsoft work is described at a high level.
Case studies
enterpriseRun a high-volume malware pipeline with tiered storage and gated releases
Own the pipeline that moves malware samples and phishing URLs into quarantined storage. Designed hot/cool/archive storage tiering to cut cost, built single-click build and release pipelines with static analysis, fuzz testing, vulnerability scanning, and AI-assisted code review gating CI, and added distributed tracing.
Gave security researchers a shared Azure OpenAI platform without the quota fights
Distributed Azure OpenAI deployments across multiple subscriptions behind a single API Management endpoint, with routing, load balancing, and data-residency controls. Then added per-user token rate limiting with API Management policies, plus an escalation path that grants extra capacity for critical work.
Shipped an isolated malware-investigation browser, secure and compliant from the threat model up
As dev owner, wrote the threat model and data-flow diagram, then built the controls they called for: auditing, access logging, and guardrails against customer-data exfiltration. Owned the privacy design through GDPR review, stood up the build and release pipelines, and wrote the BCDR plan, then ran the recovery simulations that validated failover and restore.
Leading a migration past a long-standing authentication blocker
Built a reusable, thread-safe OAuth 2.0 On-Behalf-Of library with configurable caching that services use to call downstream APIs under fine-grained permissions. Now leading the cross-team migration of that workflow to the web platform, working with the owning team to clear the blocker.
Made detection-quality reviews 4× faster
Designed and shipped the review system end to end — data model, ingestion pipeline, APIs, and UI/UX — partnering with UX and security-research teams. Clustered review with auto-assignment and one-click verdict propagation across each cluster.
Turned 20-second waits into sub-3-second triage
Redesigned the preview panel and added a pre-processing service, cutting preview load time from 20+ seconds to under 3 in the slowest region. An artifact-copy service raised sample availability from under 20% to about 75%, and direct blob-storage integration cut threat-hunting page loads from 30+ seconds to under 4.
Independent products
full-stackUniAccess
A pan-African university admissions portal, launching in Angola first: students build one academic profile, apply to universities, and track decisions. Payments through Stripe and Multicaixa Express, background jobs on Azure Functions, deployed on Azure Container Apps.
Vibaze
A nightlife and event ticketing platform built end to end, with role-separated access through Auth0 (Auth Code + PKCE), media on Azure Blob Storage, the frontend on Cloudflare Pages behind Cloudflare WAF, and infrastructure in Bicep.
EventPilot
A business-management app for DJs, built API-contract-first: one OpenAPI spec generates both the Go server types and the React TypeScript SDK, with a make verify gate in CI and deployment on Fly.io.
Research
publicationEnergy-Efficient 360-Degree Video Rendering on FPGA via Algorithm-Architecture Co-Design
Co-author, ACM/SIGDA International Symposium on Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA 2020). The co-designed renderer cut 360° video rendering energy by 55% versus a mobile GPU at the same frame rate, with no perceptible quality loss. View publication →
