8+ years of experience in information security, with extensive hands-on experience in incident response, threat hunting, and forensic analysis.
2+ years of demonstrated experience in a lead SOC role and responding to sophisticated threats.
2+ years of hands-on experience performing incident response in cloud environments (preferably GCP), including investigating and remediating incidents involving Kubernetes/container workloads and CI/CD pipelines.

Proven track record in developing insider threat detection strategies, writing detection signatures, and enhancing SOC processes.
Strong experience in threat intelligence, with the ability to translate adversary tactics and techniques into actionable detection and mitigation strategies.
