Google Cloud Architect | Security-First Infrastructure & DevOps

I'm a Google Cloud Professional Architect and Cybersecurity Engineer with 18+ years of hands-on experience. And I build GCP environments where security isn't bolted on at the end. It's engineered from the ground up. In today's evolving threat landscape, a reactive security posture is a liability. I specialize in proactively identifying vulnerabilities and architecting multi-layered defense systems on GCP to protect mission-critical data and ensure operational resilience. My approach integrates security into the entire cloud lifecycle, from initial design and CI/CD pipelines to continuous monitoring and incident response. My key differentiator is an offensive security mindset enhanced by AI. I leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to simulate sophisticated attack vectors and automate threat modeling, allowing me to uncover blind spots that traditional security tools often miss. This "think like an attacker" methodology ensures a more robust and future-proof security posture for your organization. My areas of expertise include: - Cloud Billing & Cost Optimization: Implementing FinOps Strategy, Cost Optimization & Resource Management. - Cloud Security Architecture: Designing secure-by-default GCP landing zones and infrastructure. - Threat Detection & Posture Management: Implementing and managing GCP Security Command Center and other CSPM tools. - AI-Enhanced Offensive Security: Using LLMs for advanced penetration testing and vulnerability discovery. - Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security: Securing Terraform scripts and CI/CD pipelines against misconfigurations. - Container & Kubernetes (GKE) Security: Hardening containerized environments and implementing service mesh security. - Compliance & Governance: Architecting solutions to meet frameworks like ISO 27001 and SOC 2.
