Industry Experience
Industry experience spans advanced data science and engineering work in cybersecurity-focused production environments, covering detection, analysis, optimization, and system-level decision support.
This work includes the application of machine learning and statistical analysis to real-world security problems such as intelligent bot detection, risk scoring, and large-scale exposure and asset discovery systems. Responsibilities involved developing data-driven models and scoring frameworks, designing analytical pipelines, and transforming complex datasets into actionable signals used in production platforms.
A significant portion of this work focused on the analysis and optimization of existing security platforms, including Web Application Firewall (WAF) systems and External Attack Surface Management (EASM) platforms. Responsibilities included identifying performance bottlenecks, analyzing rule-based and DSL-driven data extraction pipelines, classifying and weighting system rules, and improving system efficiency through SQL-based analytics, dashboards, and data-driven prioritization.
Additional work included vulnerability scanning and exposure analysis, involving large-scale structuring and analysis of scanning templates and metadata in order to enable smarter scan selection, scan optimization, and post-scan analytics.
Across all industry work, the emphasis was on applying analytical thinking and automation to translate complex system data into practical solutions and decision-support insights, enabling faster engineering decisions and continuous improvement of production systems.
