What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead presales and threat-detection engineering—running POCs, designing SIEM/XDR architectures, and improving visibility and response effectiveness while enabling customer adoption.

I’m a Cybersecurity Presales Engineer with 5+ years spanning security operations, threat detection, and enterprise security solution design. I translate complex cybersecurity capabilities into business-aligned outcomes through technical demonstrations, proof-of-concept (POC) deployments, and client engagements—helping decision-makers validate value in real environments.

Previously, as a SOC Analyst II and IT Administrator, I led advanced threat detection and incident response by correlating logs across endpoints, firewalls, cloud, and networks. I built and fine-tuned detection rules to reduce false positives, supported vulnerability assessments and remediation, and maintained ISO 27001 security standards, while also administering Windows and Linux environments with a security-first mindset.
