About

I build and operate identity infrastructure and security systems for real enterprise environments — not labs. At Hy-Vee (HST Global, Bengaluru), I owned the complete JML lifecycle for 50+ enterprise users across Okta, Active Directory, and GCP — hitting 100% provisioning SLA with zero escalation backlog. I resolved every critical CyberArk PAM and Workday integration failure that came in, and built Jira Automation workflows that handled 24% of IAM tickets with zero manual intervention. On the endpoint side, I triaged 287 errored hosts across a 280+ host fleet via MECM/SCCM, executing DISM remote remediation to resolve CAB and CU corruptions on critical infrastructure including Kronos, Hyper-V, and CCTV servers. I also architected a 3-tier AI Security Gateway — FastAPI + NGINX + Microsoft Presidio + Open Policy Agent — that moved the organization from manual AI governance to automated enforcement, with full Splunk audit trails built for ISO/IEC 42001 compliance. This wasn't a college project. It ran in production. My IEEE-published research (WCCEST 2025) on automated web vulnerability assessment achieved 92% detection accuracy and cut execution time by 60% over sequential baseline tools Certifications: CCNA | AWS Cloud Practitioner | MCRA | Red Hat RHCSA I & II | IBM Cybersecurity Fundamentals | Nutanix NHCF | CompTIA Security+ (in progress)

Work experience

Core-IT Infrastructure Intern at Hy-Vee, Inc., Mar 2026 - Jun 2026 · 4 mos, Bengaluru, Identity & Access Management • Orchestrated end-to-end user lifecycle management (Joiners, Movers, Leavers) for 50+ enterprise users across Okta, on-premises Active Directory, and Google Cloud Platform, maintaining 100% provisioning SLA compliance. • Resolved 100% of high-priority escalations related to SSO misconfigurations, authentication failures, and privileged access issues across CyberArk PAM and Workday integrations. • Automated IAM workflows using Jira Automation to handle management name changes, account reactivations, and restricted AD group provisioning, reducing manual ticket resolution time. Enterprise Endpoint Management • Managed large-scale patching operations for a fleet of 280+ active hosts via MECM/SCCM/WorkspaceOne, achieving high com- pliance rates across Windows workstations and servers. • Eliminated critical update backlogs by triaging 287 errored hosts and executing remote DISM remediation to resolve cabinet file (CAB) and cumulative update (CU) corruptions. • Ensured business continuity by executing firmware upgrades on servers, including VM state verification, failovers, and post- upgrade failback procedures. Security Policy & AI Governance • Developed a centralized AI Security Policy and technical guardrail architecture, transitioning the organization from manual user responsibility to automated system enforcement. • Architected a secure 3-tier AI Gateway using FastAPI and NGINX, integrating Microsoft Presidio for real-time PII anonymization and Open Policy Agent (OPA) for dynamic risk-based model routing. • Established an immutable audit trail via Splunk capturing full prompt-to-decision lifecycles, ensuring readiness for ISO/IEC 42001 compliance audits. • Contributed on the Network Health Dashboard, implementing internal routing logic and UX enhancements for the network operations team.

SOC Analyst Intern at TEACHNOOK (TEACHSCAPE ONLINE LEARNING SERVICES PRIVATE LIMITED), Feb 2024 - Apr 2024 · 2 mo, India, Investigated and triaged 50+ security alerts daily using Microsoft Sentinel and Defender Suite; reduced false positives by 15% through refined SIEM correlation rules. • Conducted vulnerability assessments and assisted in penetration testing on internal web applications; identified and documented critical vulnerabilities (SQLi, XSS) for remediation. • Authored detailed incident reports and contributed to SOC playbook updates, improving team mean-time-to-respond (MTTR) by10%. • Performed threat hunting by analyzing network traffic logs in Wireshark to detect anomalous patterns and lateral movement indicators. • Collaborated with senior analysts to simulate adversarial attack scenarios and strengthen incident response workflows.
