Senior Cloud Security Architect with 12+ years of engineering experience designing and operating secure, scalable cloud-native platforms for mission-critical systems. I combine security architecture, platform engineering, and software engineering to deliver practical, business-aligned security controls without slowing delivery.
My core expertise includes cloud network security architecture (VPC segmentation, private connectivity, zero-trust access patterns), cloud load balancing across all major models (L4/L7, internal/external, regional/global), WAF strategy and deep Cloud Armor policy tuning, and resilient data-layer design including multi-region Cloud Spanner setups. I design security controls that improve both protection and reliability, while keeping systems cost-efficient and operationally sustainable.
I can present architecture clearly to executives and engineering teams, produce high-quality architecture diagrams, and explain why each security/scalability/reliability decision matters. I lead threat modeling, architecture reviews, and implementation planning to increase security posture, scalability, and fault tolerance in production environments.
I am currently preparing for CISSP and have strong practical command across all CISSP domains, applying these principles directly in cloud architecture and delivery.
Google Cloud (5x Professional Certified): Professional Cloud Architect, Professional Cloud Network Engineer, Professional Security Operations Engineer, Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer, Professional Data Engineer.
Complementing my cloud background, I hold Cloud Security Alliance certifications (CCSK, CCZT). As a published Technical Author, I regularly share hands-on engineering insights on Medium and in professional publications, focused on cloud security, platform reliability, and modern architecture.
