Electronic Engineer with more than eight years of experience in Information Security and Cybersecurity, developed in banking, credit bureaus, the oil industry, and the technology sector.
I have led strategic security projects covering the entire cycle: from presentation and justification to senior management committees, management of contracting processes and evaluation of alternatives, to implementation, supervision, and continuous improvement.
I have experience leading multidisciplinary teams of up to six professionals, promoting collaboration and achieving objectives in highly demanding environments.
My profile combines solid knowledge of security architectures, extensive experience in defensive operations (Blue Team), and experience managing offensive teams (Red Team). I have worked directly with senior managers such as General Managers and Presidents, strengthening my skills in executive communication, strategic leadership, and decision-making in corporate cybersecurity.
