What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a SOC or security operations role where I can run threat hunting with KQL/Sentinel, lead incident response with EDR/SIEM, and drive vulnerability remediation using Qualys and automation to improve MTTR.

I’m a Cybersecurity Analyst with 4+ years of experience in SOC operations, incident response, and vulnerability management. I’m hands-on with EDR (SentinelOne), SIEM (Sumo Logic, Sentinel1), and SOAR workflows (ServiceNow), and I use KQL for advanced hunting in Microsoft Sentinel/Defender.

I execute vulnerability assessments with Qualys VMDR & GAV and administer Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) for identity, group/privilege administration, and authentication monitoring. I’ve also reduced mean time to respond (MTTR) by 20% through automation and optimized workflows, while enforcing policies via Zscaler (IP/hash blocking) and continuously updating playbooks/runbooks based on findings.
