• Secure hybrid environments combining virtual machines, containerized workloads, and cloud-native services, ensuring consistent security standards.
• Drive proactive risk identification through continuous scanning, threat modeling sessions, risk assessments, and architecture reviews.
• Enable engineering teams to build secure-by-design practices by acting as a trusted advisor, developing internal tools, and leading security awareness sessions.
• Participate in operational security and incident readiness, including on-call rotations, security event investigations, and improving incident response workflows.
• Lead security improvement projects, focusing on automation, tool enhancement, process optimization, and fostering a culture of security ownership.
