My role as a Senior AWS Cloud Engineer at Inspired Entertainment INC has equipped me with the expertise to monitor and analyze security logs, conduct vulnerability assessments, and ensure compliance with regulatory standards such as HIPAA and GDPR. I pride myself on my excellent communication skills, which enable me to collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
