Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBraden Helmer is a Software Engineer II based in Cary, NC with five years of experience building security-focused tooling and test automation at Cisco and enterprise features at nCino. He holds a Master of Computer Science with a focus on compilers and parallelism and has repeatedly translated security requirements into practical CI/CD solutions—authoring SDKs, CLIs, and Playwright-based end-to-end test suites that integrate vulnerability scanning into developer workflows.
