Senior🎓
Top SchoolShawn Niederriter is a Senior Security Developer (Engineer 4) at Comcast with a decade of experience building scalable security and DevOps systems across cloud and on-prem stacks. He led initiatives to centralize cloud security feeds from AWS, Azure, and GCP and helped scale a high-throughput logging platform (Kafka + ELK) that processes hundreds of thousands of events per second for IR, data science, and compliance teams. A self-taught Linux admin and Python developer, he pairs hands-on systems work (Prometheus, Grafana, Ansible, SIEMs) with backend engineering—contributing example integrations to the popular Sanic web framework. He’s also an entrepreneur and former EdTech co-founder, bringing product intuition to large-scale security engineering problems. Based in Philadelphia, Shawn is happy in his current role and focuses on pragmatic, production-ready solutions that bridge security, observability, and data. An unusual detail: he combines SIEM proof-of-concept experience with practical big-data ETL design, making him fluent in both discovery and operationalization of security telemetry.
