What I'm looking for

I am seeking a SecOps/cloud security role where I can lead incident response, advance threat-hunting automation, work with modern cloud platforms, and continue professional growth in a collaborative team.

I am a SecOps specialist with hands-on experience managing security incidents across cloud, email, and endpoint environments for a high-growth crypto/fintech startup.

I specialize in Azure cloud security and Microsoft Sentinel, leveraging Microsoft Defender, Defender for Cloud, EOP, and advanced threat detection with KQL to deliver proactive threat hunting and custom alerting.

I automate analysis and response using Python, Bash, and PowerShell, and lead incident triage and containment across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments while managing identity protection with Microsoft Entra ID and Okta.

I hold multiple security certifications (CompTIA Security+, CySA+, Microsoft SC-200, AWS Cloud Practitioner, eJPT), actively participate in CTFs, and focus on continuous learning to stay current with emerging threats.
