Software Engineer

Hi, I'm Vibhek

About Me

I'm a Backend Developer & Security-Focused Engineer based in Queens, New York. I specialize in building secure, scalable backend platforms and infrastructure.

With experience in real-time API systems, full-stack authentication flows, Cloudflare integration, and hardened VPS deployments, I bring a strong foundation in both high-level architecture and low-level networking. My production experience spans Python, C, C++, and C#.

I'm passionate about creating robust solutions that prioritize security without compromising on performance or user experience. Whether it's developing a custom firewall system, implementing complex authentication flows, or building AI-powered platforms, I focus on delivering reliable and maintainable code.
