What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can strengthen SOC monitoring and detection engineering with SIEM/EDR, lead incident response, and use threat intelligence to reduce risk—while collaborating across teams to improve security posture and maintain compliance.

I’m a cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience across both blue team and red team disciplines, focused on securing networks, systems, applications, and cloud environments against evolving threats.

In my current role as an Information Security Analyst (Remote, United Kingdom), I lead security monitoring improvements through holistic SIEM log and alert fine-tuning, vulnerability assessments across enterprise assets, and strengthening email security controls using SPF, DKIM, and DMARC.

I proactively detect and respond to threats through incident investigation and investigation workflows aligned with NIST SP 800-61, including daily dark web monitoring, phishing analysis, DLP and EDR policy implementation, and detection rules/playbooks across SIEM, EDR, and DLP platforms.

I also drive security assurance through cloud security assessments, WAF optimization, regulatory compliance ownership (ISO 27001 and PCI-DSS), and automation of security workflows using n8n—turning threat intelligence and operational insights into measurable improvements.
