Cybersecurity engineer and software developer focused on secure systems and automated identity solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity engineer and software developer with strong academic credentials and hands-on experience building secure systems, identity management APIs, and penetration testing solutions. I hold a First Class BSc in Computer Science and am pursuing an MSc in Cybersecurity Engineering.
In industry and projects I have designed a SCIM API that automated user provisioning across Azure and MX3.0, authored an in-depth technical report, and integrated services across Linux and Windows environments. My projects include a continuous facial authentication system for care robots, network topology and cyber-risk assessments, and full-stack web applications.
I prioritize practical security outcomes, clear documentation, and collaborative delivery within Agile teams. I bring strong programming skills (C/C++, Java, Python, JavaScript), hands-on tooling experience, and a demonstrated ability to find and remediate vulnerabilities to reduce risk.
