What I'm looking for

I'm looking for opportunities to lead AI-enabled cybersecurity operations, threat detection and response, SIEM/SOC delivery, IAM integration, security transitions, and governance initiatives in global enterprise environments.

At IBM India, I've led security delivery for John Wood Plc and Schneider Electric, managing threat response, QRadar, EDR, CrowdStrike, Microsoft 365 Defender, vulnerability remediation, SOC governance, SLA adherence, and executive reporting. I've also supported ISO 27001, SOX, GDPR, and HIPAA compliance initiatives.

I've delivered IAM integration work for MUFG Americas and led end-to-end security Transition & Transformation for Royal Philips. Across 18+ years in cybersecurity, project management, service delivery, and technical support, I bring hands-on experience in AI-enabled threat detection, SIEM/SOC operations, governance, and cross-functional stakeholder coordination.
