Kiran Nayak
@kirannayak
Cybersecurity-focused software engineer skilled in Python, React, and applied ML for threat detection.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity-focused software engineer with hands-on internship experience building detection tools, React applications, and Python utilities that automate tasks and analyze network traffic.
I have trained a Random Forest model for threat detection, implemented packet-timestamp anomaly detection in a React Wireshark analyzer, and developed task-management and virtual assistant Python applications. I combine practical security analysis with data visualization and applied ML to deliver actionable results.
I collaborate well on projects involving web stacks, ML toolchains, and security platforms, and I prioritize clear communication of technical findings and robust, maintainable implementations.
