What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining product leadership and security/compliance responsibilities at organizations valuing measurable risk reduction, cross-functional collaboration, and technical excellence.

I am a security-focused product leader and assessor with extensive experience in governance, risk and compliance, vulnerability management, and secure software development. I lead client engagements for ISO/IEC 27001, SWIFT CSP assessments, and PCI DSS as a Qualified Security Assessor.

At Biz Serve IT I managed PCI and SWIFT CSP engagements, evaluated networks, infrastructure, applications, vulnerability management programs, and SDLC processes to identify gaps and recommend remediation. I supported organizations through compliance implementation and QSA readiness activities.

Previously I served as Product Owner and Lead Architect for SIEM and security analytics platforms where I defined roadmaps, prioritized security features, conducted market and security research, and delivered trainings for SOC teams and partners. I have hands-on experience with managed security services, log integration, monitoring, alerting, and performance optimization.

I hold certifications including PCI QSA, SWIFT CSP Assessor, CISSP and CISA, and I have authored multiple publications on anomaly detection, intrusion detection and user behavior analytics. I bring a technical, research-driven approach to building compliant, resilient security products and programs.
