  • CI/CD Pipeline: Designed and automated secure CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, integrating advanced security scans (SAST, SCA, secret detection), automated gating to prevent insecure Docker image pushes, Cosign image signing, and DefectDojo for vulnerability management. Incorporated Checkov for infrastructure-as-code scanning to enforce security posture.
  • GitOps: Implemented policy-driven deployments using ArgoCD, enforcing secure, declarative, and auditable releases of critical DevSecOps tools across production environments.
  • Monitoring & Alerting: Built an enterprise-grade observability stack utilizing StackRox, Grafana, Prometheus, and GoAlert to improve incident response readiness and ensure compliance with security SLAs.
  • IaC Security Scanning: Automated Helm chart and Terraform script scanning with Checkov, significantly reducing misconfigurations and audit risks.
  • CSPM: Deployed an agent in clusters across AWS, GCP, and Azure environments with root-level read access permissions. This agent collects comprehensive cloud resource inventories and continuously scans them for compliance with security best practices and regulatory standards, enabling proactive cloud security posture management.
  • Helm Chart Development: Built and maintained secure Helm charts for DevSecOps applications, ensuring standardized, auditable, and error-resistant deployments.
  • Runtime Security: Deployed and managed StackRox agents across Kubernetes clusters, implementing strict admission control to block noncompliant workloads and enforce runtime policies.
  • SBOM (Software Bill of Materials): Established automated SBOM generation pipelines with license validation and Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange (VEX) prioritization to strengthen software supply chain compliance and enable effective vulnerability prioritization.
