Cybersecurity Architect specializing in secure hybrid cloud (AWS/Azure) and mission-critical incident response.
GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Cybersecurity Architect and AWS Certified professional, known for executing complex assignments under tight deadlines in fast-paced, mission-critical environments. I design, evaluate, and secure hybrid cloud infrastructures across AWS and Azure, with deep expertise in vulnerability management, incident response, and cloud migration.
At Evotec SE, I designed the architecture for a Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform, prepared it for operational use, and built an Internal App Gateway with WAF integration and GitHub Actions CI/CD. I also define and document Security Architecture Baselines aligned to industry expectations so teams can implement secure patterns consistently.
Previously at Caseware International Inc., I led incident response during global security incidents—including restoring over 5,000 systems within 8 hours during the CrowdStrike outage. I implemented AWS Control Tower security guardrails, built continuous monitoring, and delivered Python-based automation to streamline compliance evidence collection across multiple tools and platforms.
