Navid Sadeghi

AI & Security Engineer · Lifelong learner

I'm hooked on learning. From circuits and control systems to web, cloud and now AI, every step of my path started with wanting to understand something new and I still can't stop.

About

I work where AI agents meet cybersecurity: building agents for SOC work and the SIEM platforms behind them, for both IT and industrial (OT) networks. I also run production infrastructure on Kubernetes and AWS EKS.

My background is in control systems. In my M.Sc. I trained reinforcement learning controllers for quadrotors and I still think about AI the same way: systems that observe, reason, decide and act.

What connects it all is curiosity. I moved from hardware to web development, from DevOps to security and AI, because I wanted to learn what came next and I never got tired of it. Teaching has been part of that too: explaining something is the best way I know to learn it properly.
