What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a SOC/Blue Team role where I can monitor and correlate logs, investigate incidents with precision, and automate detection/response. I want a team that values structured playbooks, measurable outcomes, and continuous skill growth.

I’m an IT professional with 4+ years of hands-on experience in mission-critical production environments, now strategically transitioning to cybersecurity with a focus on Blue Team and SOC operations. My foundation spans Windows Server administration, Active Directory, corporate networking, Oracle Database, and application infrastructure—skills I directly apply to threat detection and security monitoring.

I thrive on incident troubleshooting, log analysis, and security hardening, correlating events with precision and escalating alerts appropriately. I automate and support secure operations using PowerShell and Python, and I work across SIEM-driven workflows (Splunk and Elastic/ELK), detection technologies, and operational response playbooks.

In practice, I’ve built automation that reduces security and operational risk—like engineering an automated password-reset system via corporate intranet, eliminating a social engineering attack vector and reducing support tickets by ~60%. I also maintain and evolve legacy C#/.NET + Oracle systems with secure coding practices, and I integrate external REST APIs to keep services reliable and traceable.

I continuously test and document my learning through Blue Team Labs and TryHackMe writeups, including threat hunting exercises aligned to MITRE ATT&CK. With ISC2 CC and For net certifications (FCF, FCA), and Security+ in progress, I’m motivated to contribute to SOC Tier 1/Blue Team roles where analysis, monitoring, and disciplined response make measurable impact.
