Cybersecurity Specialist
What I'm looking for
With over 6 years of hands-on experience, I build network-based security systems from scratch—configuring Juniper/Cisco switches, setting up VLANs for 260+ cameras, and designing IP schemes that are secure and maintainable.
I’m currently developing my cybersecurity skills across Wazuh/Splunk SIEM, OPNsense/Fortinet firewall, Active Directory, and Linux/Windows administration. I bring strong technical documentation habits, root cause analysis, and risk identification to every deployment.
As a Senior IT and Security Systems Specialist at AirTech LLC, I led end-to-end deployment and network configuration for CCTV, access control, and intrusion detection in government and commercial facilities—handling fiber routing, VLAN segmentation, IP reallocation, and security hardening (including elimination of default configurations).
I also coordinated 24/7 security screening operations at large-scale international events as a Project Coordinator at CloudFuture LLC, defining requirements and supervising teams of 10–15. I’m well-suited for shift work and for linking physical security operations with cybersecurity outcomes.
