What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead DevSecOps and cloud security initiatives, build AI-driven automation, collaborate cross-functionally, and drive measurable reduction in vulnerability risk while expanding my cloud security impact.

I am a DevSecOps and Cybersecurity engineer with over seven years of hands-on experience securing applications and cloud-native environments across AWS and Azure.

I have led integration of SAST, DAST, SCA, container, and Kubernetes security into CI/CD pipelines, implementing zero-trust controls and automating security workflows to enable shift-left security.

I built GenAI-powered accelerators and agentic AI solutions that automated false-positive analysis and vulnerability triage, reducing manual effort by up to 80% while improving remediation effectiveness.

I hold multiple cloud and security certifications and consistently collaborate with engineering, operations, and security teams to enforce secure coding standards, threat modeling (STRIDE), and infrastructure-as-code best practices to strengthen overall security posture.
