Cybersecurity Team Lead | Expert in People & Process Management | Agile & Scrum-Aligned Leader

India

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role where I can lead with purpose, drive team success, and bring clarity to chaos—a space where people, process, and performance come together to create real impact.

With over 4 years of experience in cybersecurity, I’ve built a career focused on leading high-impact incident response teams, ensuring operational resilience, and streamlining security workflows. Currently, I serve as a Team Leader, where I specialize in managing people, assigning tasks, organizing team operations, and fostering cross-functional collaboration to support security initiatives. I take pride in creating structured, goal-oriented environments that empower teams to perform at their best.

Throughout my journey, I discovered my strongest interest lies not in the technical depths of cybersecurity, but in the human side of operations—leadership, coordination, and agile delivery. I've led team meetings, mentored junior analysts, collaborated across departments, and implemented systems that enhanced team productivity and accountability.

Driven by my passion for organizational excellence and team enablement, I am actively transitioning into a Scrum Master role—a natural evolution of my skills in leadership, planning, and process improvement. I’m currently pursuing Scrum certification to deepen my expertise and bring even greater value in Agile environments.

I’m now focused on securing a mid-level Scrum Master or Agile delivery role where I can combine my technical background and leadership skills to drive project success, team alignment, and continuous improvement.
