What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead SOC operations and detection engineering, drive automation and SOC maturity, work with cross‑functional teams, and contribute to cloud and enterprise threat detection at scale.

I am a Security Delivery Lead with 6.5+ years of hands‑on experience across SOC operations, incident response, threat hunting, and security engineering, having supported BFSI, Oil & Gas, pharmaceutical, retail, and government clients.

I have designed and implemented SOAR playbooks, engineered SIEM/XDR detection use cases aligned to MITRE ATT&CK, and reduced false positives and MTTR through XDR telemetry and automation. I have led cross‑functional teams, governed P1/P2 incidents as SPOC, and driven SOC maturity improvements and Service Improvement Plans.

Technically proficient with Google Chronicle, IBM QRadar, Cortex XSIAM, Microsoft Sentinel, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Azure Security tools, Tenable Nessus, and Power BI, I deliver measurable improvements in detection, response consistency, and operational reporting. I am open to relocation and international assignments.
