  • Practical exposure to federal security frameworks (CMMC, NIST 800-53, FedRAMP).

  • Experience securing government cloud environments (AWS GovCloud), ensuring compliance with federal security requirements.

  • Hands-on experience with cloud-native incident alerting services (e.g., AWS GuardDuty/Security Hub, Azure Defender, etc.)

  • Automate configuration management, patching, and policy enforcement for networks, servers, and endpoints

  • Monitor security events using SIEM tools (Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk)

  • Collaborate with product, Platform, and compliance teams to embed security in the SDLC

  • Support incident response and post-incident review, growing toward leading these efforts over time
