What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build scalable detection engineering and SOC automation—mapping detections to MITRE ATT&CK, improving alert tuning, and shipping production-grade security pipelines with strong threat research and engineering collaboration.

I’m a Cybersecurity Engineer specializing in Detection Engineering, SOC operations, and Malware Analysis. I build end-to-end security pipelines (SIEM, ELK, Wazuh), develop detection logic mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, and use reverse engineering techniques to turn threats into actionable detections.

Through freelance work and SOC experience, I’ve engineered secure CI/CD pipelines, container hardening, and security dashboards that reduced incident detection time, while maintaining Wazuh + ELK processing for 10K+ daily logs. I also publish security research, build automation-first labs and tools (Sigma-to-Lucene, secrets scanning), and reverse engineer malware families—bringing scalability, automation, and operational clarity to detection workflows.
