What I'm looking for

I'm particularly interested in SOC, Cloud Security, and IAM roles.

At MAQ Software, I resolve Azure infrastructure, endpoint, and identity-related incidents. I support Microsoft Entra ID, Azure resources, and Microsoft Intune while following organizational security standards.

After joining as an Associate Systems Engineer, I supported Azure administration, endpoint troubleshooting, access provisioning, and enterprise network infrastructure.

In my AI-Powered SOC Lab, I deployed Wazuh SIEM across Windows and Linux endpoints and authored detection rules for brute-force attempts and suspicious access. I also built a prototype assistant that summarizes alerts and generates remediation guidance using an LLM.

My cybersecurity experience includes vulnerability assessments with Nmap and Burp Suite, Zero Trust training at Zscaler, and hands-on Active Directory and IAM labs. I hold Microsoft AZ-104 and AB-900 certifications, along with ZTCA and Cisco Cybersecurity Essentials.
