工作經驗
Cyber Security Engineer
Greater London, England, Great Britain
As a Cyber Security Engineer at the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), I play a pivotal role in fortifying our cyber defense infrastructure.
I lead the design and implementation of integrations with diverse log sources on the FCA's SIEM platform, leveraging tools such as Salesforce, Zscaler, and Delinea. Additionally, I utilize Power BI to generate insightful reports, enabling stakeholders to understand our cyber security services effectively.
In conjunction with these efforts, I am responsible for deploying and optimizing SOAR (Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response) solutions like Sentinel, streamlining incident response processes and augmenting our threat detection capabilities.
Moreover, I oversee the installation and management of vulnerability management agents and scanners on the FCA's networks and virtual machines. I ensure the accuracy and usefulness of the information provided by these tools, refining data to enhance its utility within our environment.
A key aspect of my role involves developing and refining detection rules and threat hunting strategies using KQL queries within our SIEM environment. I collaborate closely with the SOC and incident response teams to craft and fine-tune these rules, bolstering our ability to detect and mitigate malicious activities promptly.
Additionally, I actively engage in proactive threat hunting initiatives, leveraging KQL queries to identify and neutralize potential threats before they escalate.In addition to my technical contributions, I develop intuitive workbooks and dashboards, empowering SOC analysts to navigate and interpret log data seamlessly. By delivering a user-friendly interface and visually representing data insights, I facilitate informed decision-making and proactive threat detection within the FCA's operational landscape.
Level 2 Support - Tools and Workload Manager
Greater London, England, Great Britain
During my tenure at IBM as a Level 2 Support - Tools and Workload Manager, I served as the linchpin in coordinating the workload of a team comprising over ten technical support engineers.
In this capacity, I spearheaded the management of support cases for a suite of IBM's network management products, prioritizing them based on severity, SLA, and team member availability.Regular communication with engineers enabled me to efficiently allocate tasks, preventing workload imbalances and ensuring timely resolution of customer issues.
I actively engaged with customers, providing support and guidance to expedite issue resolution, particularly for straightforward cases where the input of experienced engineers was unnecessary.
In addition to overseeing support operations, I immersed myself in hands-on technical activities, including problem recreation and product testing on IBM's cloud environment using RHEL based systems. To further enhance my skills and deepen my understanding of container-based environments, I completed training in Docker, Kubernetes, and Openshift.
My role as the Tools and Workload Manager for IBM's Level 2 Support team required a blend of leadership, technical proficiency, and customer-centricity, contributing to the seamless delivery of support services for IBM's network management products.
