Intelligent orchestration

Multi-step agents, routing, tool use, structured outputs and grounded retrieval — designed as systems rather than isolated prompts.

agent → retrieve → reason → tool → verify → respond
A / 02

Real-time AI

Streaming interfaces and voice systems where latency is part of the product. WebSockets, full-duplex interaction and incremental response delivery.

audio → STT → LLM → TTS → stream
A / 03

Cloud architecture

AWS and Azure experience across deployment, containers, managed services, CI/CD and serverless/event-driven architecture.

event → function → service → data → observe

SOC, SIEM & detection

ELK-based SIEM pipelines for Nokia security platforms — log ingestion and normalisation, correlation rules and agentic alerting that cut noise and route real incidents to the right responders.

logs → parse → enrich → correlate → alert → triage

Vulnerability management & AppSec

Scanning, risk-based prioritisation and remediation tracking across platform estates, plus secure-by-default engineering: OWASP Top 10, dependency and code scanning in CI/CD, and hardened APIs.

Cloud & AI security

Least-privilege IAM, AWS/Azure hardening and secrets hygiene — and for LLM systems: prompt-injection defence, guardrails, grounded outputs and safe, auditable tool use for agents.

AIPRODUCT
My approach: keep the model layer replaceable, the product layer human, the data layer grounded, the infrastructure elastic and security built in from the first commit. I work comfortably across AWS/Azure, APIs, CI/CD, containers and serverless/event-driven patterns.
