IT Operations & Security Engineer
Hey, I’m a MSc Cybersecurity grad who’s happiest keeping systems secure, automating the tedious bits, and building infrastructure that just works. IT support, cloud, and security are my playground. Have a look around.
Embedding security at the right of the SDLC — runtime protection, drift detection and continuous compliance instead of pre-deploy gates only.
Pick one; the work filters to what proves it.
A hardened WordPress stack on AWS EC2, provisioned entirely with Ansible playbooks — repeatable, versioned, torn down as easily as brought up.
A daily workflow that scrapes cybersecurity feeds, summarises them with Gemini and pushes a curated digest — all on a Raspberry Pi.
A self-hosted security-operations lab — SIEM, IDS and vulnerability scanners wired together to detect and triage attacks against a simulated network.
Created a corporate Active Directory (apex.local) environment on VMware (Windows Server 2025, Windows 10 client) setting up OUs and user accounts for centralized management. Combined Linux server (Proxmox), Raspberry Pi and IoT devices to emulate hybrid corporate IT scenarios. Gained practical experience managing, monitoring and troubleshooting a multi‑platform network.
CLI app that provisions a user in a Keycloak identity provider using the Admin REST API. Added support for provisioning role-based access to group resources from a single source and enforcing MFA enrolment when a user logs in for the first time. Supports batch onboarding of CSV with fail‑soft error handling: only standard library, offline mock mode for demos.
A private cloud drive on a Raspberry Pi — encrypted file sync for the household.
Kept short on purpose — the work above is the argument.
