I build production threat detections from adversary research, hunting campaigns and automating security analysis.
What I'm looking for
At Trellix, I hunt emerging scam and phishing campaigns, analyze adversary TTPs, and turn research into production detection logic. I've authored and validated 1,500+ YARA, SpamAssassin, and Snort signatures, improving threat identification accuracy by 30%.
My background also includes security-focused software quality work at FireEye and device security work at Philips R&D. I use Splunk, Elastic Search, Python automation, AWS tooling, and AI/LLM-driven analysis to investigate telemetry, close detection gaps, and provide actionable guidance.
