Design and build ZTNA infrastructure — implement zero-trust access policies, secure tunneling, and identity-aware network routing that replaces traditional VPN architectures
Develop advanced networking solutions — build and optimize proxy communication layers, WebSocket-based transport, and encrypted client-to-server channels that handle millions of concurrent connections
Architect high-scale backend systems — design distributed microservices for policy enforcement, real-time threat detection, and access control at scale using Node.js / TypeScript
Implement secure client-server communication — design highly secured agent-to-cloud architectures with certificate pinning, mutual TLS, and encrypted tunneling protocols
Build browser-native security components — develop browser extensions and agents (Chrome, Edge, Firefox etc.) that enforce data protection, prevent data leakage, and provide granular visibility and control
Own features end-to-end — from design through delivery, including deployment and monitoring
Influence architecture and roadmap — play a key role in architectural decisions, building toward an efficient distributed zero-trust architecture
Research and develop — drive new initiatives and POCs in zero-trust access domains and browser security
Collaborate cross-functionally — work with security researchers, product, and platform teams across multiple locations to solve complex problems
