Security & Software Engineer with a strong foundation in software development and a focus on secure, high-performance backend systems. I started my career as a programmer and progressively transitioned into cybersecurity, building expertise in web application security, threat modeling, and CI/CD automation.
Let’s build secure, reliable, and high-impact software together!
- Security-conscious by default — integrating secure coding and threat modeling into development
- Strong focus on backend architecture, RESTful APIs, and maintainable software
- Pragmatic approach to agile development and clean code
- Hands-on experience in FinTech and financial data processing
- Languages: Python, PHP, JavaScript, Bash/Shell scripting
- Web & Backend: RESTful APIs, Flask, Laravel, Secure Web Application Development
- Security: OWASP Top 10, WSTG, Penetration Testing, Threat Modeling, API Security, CI/CD Security, Automated Vulnerability Detection
- Databases: MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Secure Database Design
- DevOps / Automation: Docker, AWS (Lambda, EC2), GitHub Actions, CI/CD pipelines, Automated Security Testing
- Practices: Agile, SOLID, Clean Architecture, Secure SDLC, Code Reviews, DevSecOps
