What I'm looking for

I’m actively building toward a full-time SOC analyst role, seeking an environment with experienced analysts to sharpen my detection skills and contribute to a team that takes security seriously. Open to SOC Analyst, Junior Cybersecurity Analyst, or Information Security Analyst roles in Tokyo or remote.

I’m a cybersecurity analyst with CompTIA Security+ certification and hands-on experience across threat detection, incident response, and security tooling—built through CompTIA labs and TryHackMe, plus a compliance-driven accounting background. Managing risk assessments, control gap analysis, and regulatory submissions for 100+ client companies gave me a precision-first mindset and deep respect for compliance frameworks.

In a SOC role, I triage and analyze complex, high-volume data sets under time pressure, and I translate risk-based thinking into alert triage and log analysis. I’m actively building toward a full-time SOC analyst role, with hands-on experience in Splunk, ELK, Wireshark, Nmap, Linux, and Python, and I’m open to SOC Analyst, Junior Cybersecurity Analyst, and Information Security Analyst opportunities in Tokyo or remote.
