What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead cloud security governance and CSPM programs across multi-cloud environments, advising both technical and business stakeholders. I want to build security-by-design and AI risk management that reduces cloud exposure.

I’m a Cloud Security & GRC Specialist with 8 years of cybersecurity experience across consulting and enterprise environments. I focus on multi-cloud security, Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) with Wiz, and governance, risk & compliance—backed by hands-on DevSecOps and security automation.

In my current role as Cloud Security Specialist (APAC Singapore | Malaysia), I manage the implementation of Wiz CSPM and multi-cloud risk remediation. I define cloud security baselines, review landing zones and architectures, and support cloud migration through security advisory for Move to Cloud programs.

I also lead governance activities such as security exceptions, risk acceptance, and remediation follow-up, and I assess AI-related cloud risks to support AI projects through the security review process. I’ve additionally designed and implemented a Cloud Security Data Product, including its roadmap, governance, and data integration strategy.

Earlier, at Accenture, I managed cloud security posture management activities, ran risk assessments, and helped integrate security into projects. Before that, I worked on ISO 27001 policies, IAM control assessments, and PCI DSS compliance activities, plus patch management, security audits, and penetration test support.
