Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGaurav Narwani is a penetration tester and security engineer with eight years of hands-on experience and three years focused on information security and automation, currently testing defenses at AWS. He has a strong track record finding critical web and infrastructure flaws—RCE, SQLi, SSRF, request smuggling and more—through both crowdsourced programs (HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Synack) and enterprise engagements. Gaurav builds automation to scale testing and compliance, from Wi‑Fi and web pentest pipelines to integrated CIS/NIST audit frameworks that cut processes by up to 60%. He pairs offensive skills with secure‑by‑design sensibilities demonstrated in DAST/SDLC automation and tooling (Nmap, Burp, Nessus, Python/NodeJS scripts) and teaches others as a course assistant and speaker. Based in Seattle and holding an MS from Johns Hopkins, he balances red‑team rigor with developer empathy, often turning repetitive tasks into repeatable automation that accelerates remediation.
