What I'm looking for

I seek a technical leadership role in cloud or product security where I can scale security programs, drive secure SDLC/DevSecOps adoption, mentor teams, and deliver measurable reductions in risk within collaborative engineering cultures.

I am a cybersecurity professional with 12+ years of hands-on experience protecting cloud, application and infrastructure environments. I specialize in cloud security strategy, secure SDLC practices, DevSecOps adoption, threat modeling and targeted security testing.

In my current role,

I define and lead cloud security strategy and roadmaps, perform threat modeling, review security architecture & design, design & implement security controls, respond to incidents. My efforts have contributed in raising compliance for crown‑jewel applications/accounts, building strong identiy foundation for web application/APIs, remediated high‑risk IAM vulnerabilities across the cloud native stack, improved MTTD/MTTR for critical issues, etc.

I translate security requirements for cross‑functional teams, mentor peers, and build practical, repeatable controls that reduce risk.

I deliver measurable improvements in security posture and seek opportunities to scale security programs and lead technical initiatives in engineering-driven organizations.
