概要

I am a software engineer at Microsoft with experience spanning multiple organizations, including the Development Division, Windows CE, and my current role within the Central Engineering team in Microsoft Research. My work focuses on building and operating internal platforms with production-level rigor, supporting research and engineering teams through reliable, secure, and well-automated systems.

Within Central Engineering, my responsibilities include internal application development, release engineering, Azure DevOps (ADO) pipeline design and build management, and project execution. I also contribute across a broad set of engineering functions, including lab and environment management, source control systems, SQL development and administration, SharePoint-based tooling, and the development of custom test and automation tools.

I collaborate closely with both internal Microsoft teams and external partners, translating complex requirements into practical, scalable solutions. I strongly believe in delivering a high-quality engineering experience—treating internal users and external customers with the same care, reliability, and respect expected of production-facing platforms.
