ABOUT MOHAMMED AKMAL HASSAN

I\'m a proactive developer with a solid foundation in building web (Next.js, React, Node.js, MongoDB) and Android applications, currently leveling up with my Master\'s in Computer Science. My internships gave me hands-on experience turning code into real solutions, but I\'m now laser-focused on a new mission: applying my development skills to secure the digital world. While I\'m early in my dedicated security journey, I understand that secure code is the first line of defence. My experience building full-stack applications means I know where vulnerabilities can creep in (think OWASP Top 10!). I\'m actively immersing myself in security fundamentals, tools, and best practices, hungry to learn how to protect systems from the inside out. Why Startups? I thrive in dynamic environments where I can wear multiple hats, learn rapidly, and see the direct impact of my work. I\'m not just looking for a job; I want to contribute to building something meaningful and grow alongside a passionate team. My adaptability, strong communication skills (honed through presentations and collaboration), and genuine curiosity make me a natural fit for the startup hustle. What I Bring to Your Early-Stage Team: Full-Stack Web Dev: Proficient in modern stacks (Next.js, React, Node.js, Express, MongoDB). Android Development: Experience building native mobile applications. Core CS Strength: Deep understanding of Java, SQL, Computer Networks, and Cloud concepts (AWS/Azure/GCP fundamentals). Security Mindset: Actively learning security principles to transition into AppSec, DevSecOps, or Security Engineering roles. I bridge the dev and security worlds. Fast Learner & Doer: Eager to dive into new technologies and challenges headfirst. Tell me what you need built or secured, and I\'ll figure it out. Collaborative Spirit: Excellent communicator who enjoys working closely with teams to solve problems. Open to: Full-time roles where I can leverage my development skills while diving deep into cybersecurity – especially Application Security, DevSecOps, or Security Engineering tracks. Passionate about startups solving real problems! Location Note: Excited by opportunities that offer flexibility or support for travel! Open to discussing remote, hybrid, or roles with a travel component (client sites, conferences, multi-location teams).
