Cybersecurity Engineer with over a decade of experience designing and implementing security programs across IT and cloud infrastructure in the fintech and software sectors. I specialize in building secure environments aligned with international standards (SOC2, PCI DSS, FINRA, GDPR), implementing threat models, and hardening cloud infrastructure (AWS).
I thrive in cross-functional, international teams, bringing a balance of hands-on expertise and strategic oversight. My track record includes developing custom security controls, enabling compliance, and integrating DevSecOps practices in high-growth environments.
Recently, I've been focused on:
- Building asset resilience in IT and cloud systems (AWS)
- Implementing detection and response mechanisms (SIEM, EDR, XDR, DLP, UEM, NIDS)
- Leading cloud architecture hardening initiatives (AWS)
- Aligning security operations with global standards
- Supporting disaster recovery (DRP, BCP), monitoring, and incident response
