Assess and strengthen infrastructure security across Kubernetes, containerized environments, infrastructure as code (IaC), and secrets management.

Implement, configure, and manage security solutions, including Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), and vulnerability scanning tools.

Design and recommend security architectures, technical controls, and improvement roadmaps aligned with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA requirements.

Independently manage multiple client engagements, taking ownership of project scoping, technical assessments, implementation activities, and final delivery.

Collaborate directly with engineering teams, technical specialists, and client stakeholders to communicate findings and drive security improvements.

Lead client meetings, present technical recommendations, and translate complex security issues into clear, actionable remediation plans.
