What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, offers growth opportunities, and values a proactive security culture.

I am a versatile and highly skilled Cybersecurity Engineer with over 7 years of hands-on experience in securing enterprise networks, cloud environments, and critical infrastructure. My expertise lies in deploying and managing next-generation firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and VPN solutions to protect against evolving cyber threats. I have a proven track record of designing and implementing Zero Trust Architecture, conducting threat hunting, and automating incident response using SIEMs like Splunk and QRadar.

Throughout my career, I have led cross-functional security initiatives and delivered measurable improvements in threat resilience and network performance. My strong background in cloud security for AWS and Azure, along with my certifications in PCNSE and Security+, enables me to enhance operational efficiency through scripting and automation. I am passionate about training clients on cybersecurity awareness and best practices, significantly reducing phishing click rates and improving overall security posture.
