What I'm looking for

I seek a security role where I can lead SIEM and SOC operations, build automated incident response, collaborate with engineering teams, and advance cloud-native security practices in a proactive, learning-focused environment.

I am a senior cybersecurity consultant with 4+ years of hands-on experience in SIEM implementations, SOC operations, endpoint security, IDS/IPS, and cloud security. I specialize in incident handling, threat detection, log analysis, and coordinating vulnerability and patch management across Windows and Linux environments.

My experience includes deploying and operating SIEM platforms such as Microsoft Sentinel and Splunk, using EDR solutions like Microsoft Defender and CrowdStrike, and managing firewalls (Palo Alto, FortiGate) and AV tools. I have led 24/7 SOC incident response, conducted forensic investigations and root cause analysis, and operated within SLA-driven processes using tools like ServiceNow.

I have delivered Azure security assessments, automated incident response playbooks in Sentinel, and tailored security plans for clients to meet internal and regulatory standards. I communicate findings to stakeholders, run security awareness sessions, and drive remediation and continuous monitoring to reduce risk and improve security posture.
