What I'm looking for

I want a senior SOC/security role where I can lead threat hunting and vulnerability remediation, automate intelligence with Python/SOAR, and improve SLAs/MTTR in a global, compliance-focused environment.

I’m a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer with 8+ years of experience in Security Operations, Network Security, Vulnerability Management, and Incident Response across global environments. I lead threat intelligence and remediation workflows using EDR/XDR/NDR, SIEM, SOAR, and next‑generation firewalls (Fortinet, Checkpoint, Cisco ASA), grounding investigations in MITRE ATT&CK and NIST CSF.

In my recent role, I led enterprise vulnerability management across 10,000+ endpoints and thousands of containers, coordinating cross‑functional remediation to reach 95% SLA compliance for critical CVEs. I also automate manual threat intelligence collection to reduce analyst effort by 50% and improve detection and response outcomes—achieving 30% fewer recurring high-severity findings in my prior engagement and reducing MTTR by 25% with enterprise detection tooling.
