Cybersecurity engineer specializing in offensive security and secure cloud infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity engineer with 4+ years focused on offensive security and cloud infrastructure protection, who has led large-scale penetration testing programs and advised CISO-level stakeholders to translate technical findings into business risk and remediation. I have architected compliance programs (GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2), hardened AWS/GCP environments, and built automation for secure SDLC pipelines.
My hands-on experience includes running 200+ offensive engagements, mentoring junior pentesters, implementing security guardrails that removed critical cloud misconfigurations, and orchestrating incident response to reduce MTTR. I combine practical pentesting skills with cloud security architecture and compliance expertise to help global enterprises reduce attack surface and meet regulatory requirements.
