Brian Liu, Senior Software Development Engineer at Zscaler. Former software engineer at AWS and F5. Previously a researcher at the IIT-Security Lab with a focus on security, generative AI, distributed systems, and networking.
Outside of work, I'm a passionate guitar and bass player, heavily into metal/rock. I also enjoy the peace of fishing and camping, tackling home improvement projects, and, of course, anything involving trucks. Most importantly, I love spending time with my family.
