WORK HISTORY
Director of Technical Product Management, Software Supply Chain Security @ReversingLabs
Dallas-Fort Worth, TX, US
As a PM for Spectra Assure, I help build solutions for Product Security and DevOps teams to ensure their releases are safe and free of undesirable things like malware, tampering, vulnerabilities, stored secrets, and backdoors. The bottom line? As a publisher of software, you don\'t want to inadvertently be the source of a supply chain attack and infect your paying customers. Advanced, nation-state threat actors are focused exactly on that. Ask me about differential analysis and reproducible builds. They are effective countermeasures.
