What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role focusing on IAM and cloud security where I can automate identity lifecycle, enforce least‑privilege/Zero Trust, improve compliance automation, and collaborate with cross‑functional teams to scale secure access across cloud and hybrid environments.

I am an Identity & Access Management and Cloud Security Engineer with 5+ years delivering secure, scalable identity solutions across Azure, AWS, GCP, and hybrid environments while holding an active DoD Public Trust Clearance.

I have direct Auth0 (Okta CIC), Entra ID, Okta, AWS IAM, and CyberArk PAM experience, and I've standardized OAuth2/OIDC, implemented Zero Trust guardrails, and automated onboarding to accelerate partner integrations and reduce operational risk.

My work has reduced orphaned accounts ~70%, accelerated partner onboarding ~60%, cut manual audit preparation ~65%, and supported compliance to NIST, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI‑DSS, FedRAMP, and SOX through automation, monitoring, and governance.
