What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead Microsoft Sentinel–focused detection engineering—KQL analytics, threat hunting, and SOC automation—while strengthening logging coverage, incident response, and MITRE ATT&CK-aligned monitoring for enterprise customers.

I’m a Cyber Security Professional with 11+ years of IT experience, including 8+ years in Cyber Security, SOC Operations, SIEM Engineering, threat detection, and incident response. I’m known for designing and implementing Microsoft Sentinel detection content with KQL analytics, aligned to MITRE ATT&CK monitoring strategies for enterprise environments.

In my current role at Accenture, I lead security monitoring and incident response for multiple enterprise customers using Microsoft Sentinel. I act as an SME and primary point of contact for Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Defender for Cloud, and security operations initiatives, including building detections for lateral movement, privilege escalation, persistence, and data exfiltration.

I’ve also driven SIEM engineering work to identify and remediate logging gaps, and I improve SOC efficiency through automation playbooks and Logic Apps. I supported threat simulation and purple-team exercises through logging validation and detection tuning, and I migrated detection content and alert logic from Splunk to Microsoft Sentinel.

Earlier, I handled vulnerability and access assurance through Nessus/Qualys assessments and IAM audits for approximately 1000 users at HSBC. I stay hands-on across endpoint and monitoring tooling (including Wazuh, EDR/XDR, and network testing) and bring a practical, compliance-aware mindset, supported by credentials like Microsoft AZ-500, AZ-900, CEH, and Zscaler ZTCA.
