Hey, I'm Alexey Pirogov! 🚀

Recently graduated from Penza State University with a degree in Information Security. I've spent the last 2.5 years as a Python Backend Developer and DevOps Engineer, building everything from web apps to AI-powered tools. I specialize in creating secure systems, automating CI/CD pipelines, and making sure security is baked into every step of development (DevSecOps). Here, you'll find my projects and experiments with cool tech.

• 🔭 Just wrapped up my thesis project: built an IAST (Interactive Application Security Testing) system to catch vulnerabilities on the fly.
• 🌱 Deep in the DevSecOps world, baking security into CI/CD pipelines and catching vulnerabilities before they hit production.
• 💻 I’ve got hands-on experience with Python, Django, Docker, CI/CD (Jenkins, GitLab CI), and security tools (Black Duck, static analysis, fuzzing).
• 🤝 Looking to collaborate on projects that mix backend, DevOps, and cybersecurity.
• 💬 Hit me up if you want to chat about Python, Django, Docker, or how to make your code more secure.
• ⚡ Fun fact: I write scripts to simplify my life, including one that tracks how much coffee I drink in a day.
