What I'm looking for

I’m open to Security Engineer, SOC, and DevSecOps roles in international teams, either remote or with relocation.

At Kommesk-Omir Life Insurance Company, I built the company’s first SIEM from scratch using Wazuh on Proxmox. It brought 60 hosts and applications under continuous monitoring where centralized logging didn’t exist before.

I integrated Semgrep SAST and secret detection into GitLab CI/CD, helping remediate 200+ exposed secrets. I also integrated Trivy scanning to detect vulnerable packages and dependencies before deployment.

I run infrastructure scans with Nmap and Nessus, prioritize findings by risk, and work with IT on remediation. My work also includes manual web application testing based on OWASP Top 10 and configuring and maintaining Palo Alto NGFW.
