About
I'm Sharlena
I've been a backend engineer for over eight years, mostly on identity systems at places like IBM, HashiCorp, and Optum. That means logins, permissions, and the parts of a system that hold sensitive customer data.
An AI tool is only useful once it's hooked up to your real email, calendar and files, and connecting things to sensitive data safely is what I've done my whole career.
I'm also not a consultant who hands you a slide deck and leaves. If you want the thing built, I'm the one who builds it.
I live in Orange County, California, and I'd love to work with businesses nearby, though I'm happy to work remotely too.
