Hey, I'm Jimmy!

I'm a software engineer with a passion for distributed systems, security, and machine learning. I currently work on building and scaling the core product, platform infrastructure, and engineering organization at Conversion.

Previously, I was on the infrastructure security team at Pinterest, where I built large-scale tier 1 systems to securely distribute identity, authorize access, and manage secrets across the company. Prior to Pinterest, I graduated from UC Berkeley where I led and contributed to several creative machine learning projects with Launchpad.

I've also had a long-standing interest in security, with a focus on web application security. I competed in CTFs with redpwn and dicegang where I learned a great deal and met many close friends and mentors.

I'm based in San Francisco, and in my free time I enjoy sharing my thoughts on all things engineering, systems, and security. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to chat! You can find me on linkedin, twitter, github, or email.
