What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead security operations where I can drive CSOC performance, automate incident monitoring with SIEM/SOAR, and strengthen threat hunting using NIST and MITRE ATT&CK—while collaborating closely with stakeholders to improve resilience.

I’m an accomplished Security Operations Analyst with over 8 years of experience in cybersecurity operations, threat detection, and CSOC leadership. I manage Cyber Security Operations Centers (CSOC) and implement advanced technologies like SIEM, EDR, and SOAR to protect critical enterprise assets—using NIST and MITRE ATT&CK to optimize incident response and vulnerability management.

I’ve spearheaded operations end-to-end: detecting and triaging complex threats, leading threat hunting with EDR/XDR, and integrating SIEM and SOAR to automate monitoring and reduce response times. I also bring hands-on security engineering experience in SIEM technologies, IAM, vulnerability assessments, security audits, log lifecycle maintenance, and detection engineering—plus mentoring support for projects focused on real-world incident response and threat intelligence.
