What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead SOC operations and threat detection, drive automation and process improvement, contribute to ISO compliance, and work on research-driven security projects in a collaborative, growth-focused environment.

I am a Cybersecurity Analyst & Security Engineer with deep technical experience across SOC operations, SIEM engineering, endpoint detection, threat investigation, and security automation. I specialize in analyzing large-scale security telemetry, tuning detection rules, and improving incident response workflows in enterprise environments.

I work extensively with Wazuh and IBM QRadar, building correlation rules, refining parsing logic, enhancing alert fidelity, and monitoring 12,000+ security events/week across endpoints, servers, networks, and cloud logs. My EDR experience includes Sophos and Juniper, where I handle malware detections, behavioral anomalies, containment actions, and post-incident cleanup.

My technical strengths include P1/P2 malware analysis, IOC harvesting, PCAP analysis using Wireshark, VPN security (SSL/IPSec), DHCP/MAC filtering hardening, phishing simulation campaigns (KnowBe4), and ISO 27001 audit preparation including evidence mapping and artifact generation.

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Cybersecurity with research focused on automotive cybersecurity, ADAS/Autonomous vehicle adversarial attacks, and satellite ground-station cyber defense — enabling me to blend operational security with advanced research-driven security modeling.

I also built the CyberAudit Toolkit, a security audit automation project that consolidates assessments across domain reputation, malware exposure, patching posture, port reconnaissance, and compliance scoring.
