IT Engineer specializing in SIEM security, SOC operations, and automation.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m an IT Engineer with 6 years of professional IT experience across Security Analyst, Technical Specialist, Test Engineer, and Security Admin roles. I completed BE in Computer Science from PESIT, and I’m trained in CEH and security concepts.
In SOC operations, I performed event log collection and analysis using SIEM tools like RSA Envision and ArcSight. I built correlation rules, watchlists, queries, and reports/dashboards, and I managed incident workflows by archiving data, tracking tickets, and escalating unexpected behavior.
I also bring hands-on technical strengths across Linux and shell scripting, Perl script-based report automation, and fix verification/automation with defect logging and unit/smoke testing. I enjoy learning continuously and applying my technical and analytical abilities to support both company growth and my personal development.
