Available for select security & backend work

Hi, I'm Nabeel Jiwani

I build cloud-native security automation and full-stack systems — from SOAR platforms that contain AWS threats in under a second, to production backends serving real users. Currently a Security Engineer at Stealth Startup.

01 — About

Systems that hold up under pressure.

I'm a computer science student and Security Engineer at Stealth Startup, with an Honors focus in Cyber Security. My work sits at the intersection of backend engineering and security - building automation that detects and contains threats, and full-stack products that hold up for real users under real load.

Preparing for the CompTIA Security+ exam.

I write reverse-engineering walkthroughs on the side and I'm ranked in the top 3% on TryHackMe — breaking things apart is basically how I learn how they're built.
