I build detection labs and automate security monitoring with Splunk, Python, and Linux.
What I'm looking for
I've built a Splunk Enterprise detection lab from bare ISO, including a Universal Forwarder pipeline, SPL detections for brute-force authentication and command execution, and auditd coverage for previously unaudited activity.
I publish Python security tooling to GitHub, including a command-line failed-login detector that parses Linux auth logs, identifies brute-force patterns by source IP, and supports automation through configurable thresholds, time windows, and cron-friendly exit codes. My hands-on work also includes Wireshark protocol analysis, Nmap scan detection, Linux administration, and MITRE ATT&CK mapping.
At Intermech on the Hanford Site, I lead multi-craft work under DOE and OSHA controls, make escalation decisions, document incidents and findings, and drive corrective actions to closure. Twelve years in federal nuclear operations and eight years in the Marine Corps have shaped how I approach monitoring, procedure, accountability, and high-consequence work.
