Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Buckaway is a pragmatic Lead Software Engineer focused on DevSecOps and cloud-native security, bringing two decades of hands-on experience across embedded systems, cross-platform C++ and modern Java/Kotlin Android stacks. He has led Bluetooth and infotainment work at Ford, hardened Kubernetes and CI/CD pipelines at OpenText, and designs serverless IoT solutions through his own company, including a public trail monitoring system. Self-taught and comfortable across Linux, Windows and macOS, he blends low-level embedded work (ESP32/OpenWRT) with cloud and automation tooling (GitLab, Octopus, Azure) and actively embeds security checks into build and deployment workflows. Outside of core engineering he studies psychology part-time and applies that curiosity to user-focused IoT features and team coaching, a mix that often surfaces human-centered insights in technical designs.
