What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration and innovation in security practices, with opportunities for professional growth and development.

As a Security Engineer with over 5 years of experience, I specialize in securing SaaS applications and cloud infrastructure. My expertise lies in infrastructure security, application security, and ensuring compliance with industry standards. I have a proven track record of using and automating a wide range of defensive security tools through scripting, particularly with PowerShell and Python, as well as infrastructure-as-code using Terraform.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated hands-on software development experience, writing code and building internal tools that enhance security practices. I excel in collaborating across engineering teams to support secure coding practices within the development workflow. My strong communication skills, coupled with my ability to document processes effectively, have been instrumental in my roles, particularly in authoring SOPs and security documentation that support compliance with SOC 2 and GDPR.
