AI Security Engineer — Solidigm

Conner Jordan

I build automation for the manual, error-prone parts of security so teams can trust it instead of babysitting it. My work sits between software engineering and security operations.

01 / About

I'm a security engineer, and lately my focus is identity: who and what can access something, why they're allowed to, and how that access gets managed over time. At Solidigm I work on enterprise IAM across cloud and on-prem systems. I came up through vulnerability remediation, and I've been carrying that into access governance and the question of how AI agents fit into all of it.

Most of my job lands in the overlap between writing software and running security operations. Some days that means finding and fixing vulnerabilities, other days it means deciding who should have access to what. Whatever I build, I want it to be dependable and genuinely easy to use.

Away from work, I'm usually out at a national park, tinkering with home automation, or starting a project that makes me learn something new.
