I build security-critical software at Microchip Technology — cryptographic provisioning, secure chip architecture, and systems that have to be correct, not just functional. ASU alumnus in CS, Software Engineering and Cybersecurity.

About

Security-focused engineering, built to last.

I'm Kyle Stevens, a Software Engineer II at Microchip Technology in Chandler, AZ. I work within the Secure Chip Group on cryptographic provisioning and security-based microchip systems — software where correctness is non-negotiable.

I hold a B.S. in Computer Science (Software Engineering, GPA 3.69) and an M.S. in Computer Science (Cybersecurity, GPA 3.42) from Arizona State University's Ira A. Fulton School of Engineering.

I've also published technical writing on GeeksForGeeks covering Python database optimization with Psycopg2 and multiprocessing.
