> Engineering Manager @ Dune Security | Columbia University Alum

Location: New York, New York, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/shivamshekhar

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with experience across Cybersecurity, Software Development, and Cloud Infrastructure. I've contributed to product development and platform engineering at Dune Security, Subconscious.ai, and Momentech, working across frontend systems, backend services, and cloud deployments.

My technical toolkit spans JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, Python, and Golang —paired with backend frameworks like Express and Django, and data stores including MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. I’ve also worked extensively with AWS, Docker, GitLab CI/CD, and NGINX, along with observability tools like Sentry and the Datadog.

Beyond my professional roles, I enjoy building and scaling full-stack projects that blend real-world utility with emerging technologies. I’m drawn to fast-paced environments where I can take ownership, move quickly, and solve hard problems with meaningful impact.
