What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on SOC/incident response role applying SIEM/SOAR and threat intelligence to reduce MTTD/MTTR, work on cloud security, and join a metrics-driven team focused on continuous improvement.

I am a cybersecurity professional with extensive experience in Security Operations, Incident Response, and Threat Intelligence. I specialize in SIEM management, log analysis, and deploying security solutions to strengthen organizational security posture.

In my current SOC Analyst role I conduct incident response and analysis using SOAR platforms, develop analytical dashboards that enhanced detection efficiency by 30, and tune SIEM rules to reduce false positives by 25. I prepare weekly and monthly security reports with metrics (MTTD, MTTR, MTTM) to support continuous improvement.

I also have a development background in Core PHP and WordPress which helps me design secure web applications and security tooling. I am committed to measurable outcomes, collaboration across teams, and continuous improvement to reduce organizational risk.
