👋 About Me

Cybersecurity and Automation Engineer with 5+ years of experience, based in Lebanon and working remotely for enterprise clients in the UAE. I specialize in building security automation that scales, from incident response playbooks to AI-augmented SOC workflows.

My work sits at the intersection of security engineering and modern AI tooling. I was an early adopter of agentic AI within SOC environments, integrating LLMs for autonomous alert triage and threat intelligence enrichment before it became mainstream.

  • 🔒 Specialized in Cortex XSOAR, Agentic AI, and Attack Surface Management
  • 📉 Reduced MTTR by 40% and analyst workload by 35%
  • 🧰 Off-hours I ship full-stack and IoT side projects: Next.js, Flutter, Express/MongoDB, Arduino
  • 🎓 B.Eng. in Computer and Telecommunications Engineering from Antonine University

💼 Experience

🛡️ Cybersecurity Engineer at Coordinates, Dubai, UAE (Remote) Sep 2022 – Present

  • Integrated agentic AI models into the SOC for threat detection, alert triage, and incident response, cutting analyst intervention by ~30%
  • Developed 50+ Cortex XSOAR playbooks and 15+ Python scripts for SIEM, EDR, and WAF workflows, bringing triage from hours to minutes
  • Built the ASM platform from scratch in Python with a distributed sensor-controller architecture and MongoDB backend, tracking 500+ external assets across 3+ client environments
  • Set up REST integrations with third-party security tools to unify log ingestion, detection enrichment, and remediation across client environments
  • Created 20+ offensive simulations with automated scheduling for continuous external exposure visibility
  • Built an end-to-end phishing check flow inspecting inbound email for malicious attachments, phishing indicators, unsafe redirects, squishing, homoglyphs, impersonation, and spoofing
  • Designed a passive asset discovery workflow comparing expected vs. observed coverage to surface blindspots via SIEM queries and EDR telemetry
  • Containerized the sensor stack with Docker, cutting deployment time from hours to minutes

📡 IoT Engineer at SAWA Group, Baalbek, Lebanon Jan 2022 – Sep 2022

  • Built an IoT flowmeter system using Arduino Mega and NodeMCU, paired with a Flutter mobile app for real-time telemetry and remote monitoring
  • Added a NodeMCU-hosted fallback web interface for manual control when the mobile app is unavailable

🔍 Cybersecurity Intern at Po.Tech Consulting, Mansourieh, Lebanon Oct 2021 – Jan 2022

  • Ran 15+ OSINT investigations and wrote Python scripts to automate passive reconnaissance, cutting manual research time by 50%
  • Contributed to the internal OSINT framework Darkivor
