04What I did
- Owned the recursive archive extraction pipeline in MetaDefender Core (30+ formats, hardened against zip bombs and malicious input); cut processing time 15% on the team's performance load test.
- Built archive-wide scan aggregation to meet a customer request, giving one overview of every file and engine result across all nesting levels of large archives.
