What I'm looking for

I seek a cloud security role where I can strengthen cloud posture, lead IAM and CNAPP initiatives, collaborate with SOC/DevOps, and grow in architecture and incident response within an enterprise-focused, security-conscious team.

I am a Cloud Security Engineer with 3+ years securing and managing cloud environments across AWS and Microsoft Azure, specializing in IAM, CSPM/CNAPP, incident response, and security monitoring. I have hands-on experience with Azure Defender, AWS CloudWatch, Linux, Python automation, and applying frameworks such as CIS, NIST, and CCM to improve enterprise security posture.

In recent roles I implemented Azure IAM best practices, maintained 99.9% uptime, reduced application latency through multi-region deployments, and strengthened AWS security and availability via IAM policies and automation. I collaborate closely with SOC and cross-functional teams, drive vulnerability remediation via ServiceNow, and run security awareness and phishing simulations to build organizational security readiness.
