What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Multi-Cloud Security Professional with over seven years of experience specializing in cloud security engineering. My expertise encompasses managing cloud security across various domains, including infrastructure security, data protection, incident response, and cloud center operations. I have a proven track record of implementing scalable and hyper-converged infrastructure solutions, particularly within AWS and Azure environments.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led architectural discussions and collaborated with stakeholders to build and migrate applications on the AWS cloud platform. My hands-on experience with AWS native tools, such as Config, CloudTrail, and Security Hub, has enabled me to detect and remediate security events effectively. I am passionate about leveraging automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to enhance security measures, streamline operations, and reduce risks while ensuring compliance with industry standards.
As a Senior Cloud Security Engineer, I have developed innovative strategies for securing cloud environments, including AI/ML workloads. I thrive in dynamic settings where I can utilize my skills to drive productivity and enhance security protocols. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development, as evidenced by my ongoing pursuit of certifications in cloud security.
