What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on security roles building SASE/SSE and automated SOCs at growth-focused teams where I can lead deployments, improve detection/response, and mentor while advancing cloud and network security practices.

I am a cybersecurity engineer with hands-on experience designing and implementing SASE/SSE architectures, automated SOCs, and cloud security solutions. I combine practical pentesting skills (Top 1% TryHackMe, CTF player) with experience in deploying SWG/CASB/ZTNA/DLP/FWaaS, SOC toolchains (Wazuh, The Hive, Cortex, MISP) and Elastic Stack for centralized logging.

I deliver secure, operable hybrid infrastructures through careful integration (Okta SAML, AD, ePO), testing, and remediation guidance, and I have built network backbones (IP/MPLS, OSPF, BGP) with monitoring and access management. I hold degrees in System and Cybersecurity engineering and certifications including AWS Cloud Practitioner, and I communicate effectively in English, French, Italian and Arabic.
