01 / About Me

Who I Am

I'm a Senior Technical Support & SRE Engineer with 6+ years of IT experience spanning ITSM, incident management, SIEM, threat intelligence, and production support.

At Xurrent, I work with SRE tools like Zenduty, Grafana, and Splunk to help organisations monitor systems, respond to incidents faster, and maintain high reliability.

Previously at TCS, I delivered SIEM solutions using Splunk Enterprise Security for clients across Germany, UK, and Thailand — onboarding log sources and fine-tuning alerts to eliminate false positives.
