## About

```text
🚀 IAM & Security Systems Engineer specializing in Identity Governance (IGA), Threat Detection, and Enterprise Compliance (SOC 2, ISO 27001).

I bridge the gap between complex infrastructure operations and robust, zero-trust cloud security frameworks. With 5 years of progressive IT experience, my core expertise lies in architecting secure identity lifecycles, enforcing strict least-privilege controls, and defending cloud environments against identity-centric threats.

Currently, I lead core Identity Governance and Security Operations at Send Technology, where I successfully co-steered the organization's inaugural attainment of SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001, and ISO/IEC 42001 certifications. I am deeply hands-on with the Microsoft Security ecosystem - specifically optimizing Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), managing complex PIM structures, and building advanced threat-hunting queries using KQL.

Whether automating Joiner-Mover-Leaver (JML) workflows or investigating advanced security signals, I focus on reducing privilege creep and minimizing the enterprise attack surface without hindering business velocity.

🛡️ CORE AREAS OF EXPERTISE:
• Identity & Access Management (IAM): Microsoft Entra ID, JumpCloud, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Conditional Access Policy Design, RBAC, Directory Hygiene.
• Security Operations (SecOps): Microsoft Defender, KQL (Kusto Query Language) Advanced Hunting, Microsoft Intune (MDM), Vulnerability Management.
• Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC): SOC 2 Type II Audits, ISO/IEC 27001:2022 (Certified Lead Auditor), ISO/IEC 42001, Control Evidence Mapping, Drata, Microsoft Purview.
• Scripting & Integration: Microsoft Graph API, PowerShell Automation, SaaS Integration Systems.

Experienced in working across global cross-functional domains (Fintech, Insurtech, ERP systems). I am actively looking to connect with cybersecurity leaders, IAM architects, and talent partners for senior-level Remote, Hybrid, or Hyderabad-based opportunities.
