What I'm looking for

I’m looking to deepen my SIEM/SOC impact in environments where accurate alerting matters—tuning detections, automating onboarding, and improving MTTR—while collaborating with teams and translating technical findings into clear actions.

I’m a results-driven SIEM Engineer and SOC Analyst with 1+ year of hands-on experience across security information and event management (SIEM), endpoint detection and response (EDR), and incident response. I focus on converting raw telemetry into reliable detection, actionable alert triage, and measurable improvements for the environments I support.

In my current role as Product and SIEM Engineer, I integrated 50+ client devices into SIEM platforms to streamline log ingestion and ensure complete visibility across distributed environments. I deployed and configured CrowdStrike Falcon and Seqrite EDR, defining compliance-aligned policies that reduced deployment time by 30% through standardized procedures.

I’m also hands-on with improving detection quality—performing root cause analysis on SIEM and EDR issues to reduce MTTR and eliminate gaps in threat detection coverage. I tune SIEM correlation rules with clients to improve alert fidelity and significantly reduce false positives, so teams can respond faster with higher confidence.

Earlier, as a SOC Analyst Intern, I monitored Securonix Next-Gen SIEM and Seceon OTM for alert triage, threat detection, and incident response. I onboarded 5+ clients and reduced onboarding time by 40% by creating repeatable integration steps; I also developed automation work using PowerShell and NXLog that reduced per-device setup time by 90%+ and packaged it for easy, one-click onboarding.
