Ahmed Shacker Helmi
@ahmedshackerhelmi
Web development and security-focused intern who builds accessible interfaces and ships data-backed detection insights.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Web Development Intern and security-minded trainee who combines clean, accessible front-end work with hands-on cybersecurity and data analysis. In IT Square LLC, I develop responsive interfaces with HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, focusing on reusable UI components, cross-browser fixes, and clean-code accessibility standards within agile sprints.
On the security side, I built an end-to-end Mini SOC on Splunk Cloud with 9 MITRE ATT&CK–mapped detection rules, triaging 1,196 rule firings across SSH/RDP brute-force, C2, and ransomware simulations. I also work across the analytics pipeline—EDA, cleaning, dashboarding, and capstone delivery with Python (pandas, NumPy), SQL, and Tableau—earning Top Achiever recognition, and I’ve delivered projects like a Splunk/Suricata/pfSense Mini SOC, an AWS-native file sharing app, and a high-performing NYC MTA ridership forecast.
