About Divya Gandhi

I believe technology should simplify complexity and make systems more reliable, secure, and intelligent. My curiosity for problem-solving has shaped my journey from experimenting with Al at Samsung Research to engineering automation and security workflows at Shell.At Shell, I\'ve built solutions that removed bottlenecks and made life easier for teams automating certificate handling to eliminate single points of failure, integrating CyberArk to shrink credential provisioning from nearly an hour to just minutes, and designing token refresh logic that keeps secrets available without downtime.Outside of work, I enjoy tinkering and building whether it\'s publishing a CLI password manager on NPM, creating JSON-to-XML converters, co-authoring a Springer publication on blockchain for international trade, or diving into hackathons.What excites me most is stretching my brain with both creativity and rigor, and turning those ideas into software that truly makes an impact!

Experience

1. Systems Engineer
