AustraliaWhat I'm looking for
I am a cyber security engineer with a Master's in Cyber Security and hands-on experience building ML-driven threat detection, dark-web intelligence pipelines, and automated SOAR playbooks for production environments.
At Haven Technologies I engineered TensorFlow and SageMaker models in Kubernetes, built Scrapy/Kafka pipelines with Elasticsearch for threat intelligence, and automated response playbooks with Python and Ansible to reduce MTTR.
Previously I designed secure bioinformatics networks, automated financial risk reporting with NLP at Lloyd's Banking Group, and performed penetration tests and vulnerability analyses—combining network engineering, data science, and secure development practices to deliver practical, maintainable solutions.
