Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolShivansh Agrawal is a Bengaluru-based Software Engineer with three years of hands-on experience building backend systems, DevOps tooling, and core infra for API security products. At Akto.io he moved quickly from intern to full-time engineer, shipping production features that span database logging, dashboard health fixes, API testing, and UI tweaks for an open-source API security project used for CI/CD testing and sensitive data detection. Comfortable across the stack, he blends pragmatic delivery—“can get shit done”—with a curiosity that led him to tackle networking and core infra early in his career. His academic record (9.02/10 B.Tech, BIT Mesra) underpins a disciplined approach to engineering, while his GitHub contributions show an inclination toward security-focused, production-grade tooling rather than toy projects. Peers would describe him as a reliable problem-solver who prefers shipping working systems to chasing perfection.
