Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSergey Shekyan is an experienced engineer with 13 years in web application security, automation detection, and vulnerability scanning, currently applying his expertise at ByteDance in Redwood City. His background includes long tenures at Shape Security and Qualys, where he helped build scanning engines and presented research at major security conferences like BlackHat USA and HITB. Sergey blends low-level systems experience from semiconductor verification and chip testing tools with web-focused security engineering, giving him a rare cross-domain perspective. He is comfortable turning adversarial thinking into automated defenses and scalable detection pipelines. Based in the Bay Area, he pairs an MS in Computer Science with a pragmatic, evidence-driven approach—aptly hinted by his GitHub tagline, "Какие ваши доказательства?"
