Cloud & Cybersecurity Engineer
MCA (Cybersecurity) graduate with production experience in AWS cloud infrastructure, backend development, and system security. Building secure, scalable architectures with Python, Flask, and Docker.
I'm Abhilash G, a Cloud & Cybersecurity Engineer with production experience deploying scalable applications on AWS— from EC2 & S3 to RDS & Route 53.
Skilled in Python, Flask, Django, and REST APIs, I build backend systems with a security-first mindset — implementing IAM roles, firewall configurations, and network security from day one.
