    I am an SOC Analyst N3, specializing in detection, advanced investigations, and incident response. I am currently looking for small to medium-term assignments where I can quickly deliver a clean, documented, and actionable result.

    I am disciplined, curious, and autonomous: I regularly undertake personal projects (lab, detection, automation, investigations) to continuously improve. I am also very pedagogical: I clearly explain my analyses and propose concrete remediation steps, adapted to both technical and non-technical teams.

    Here are some examples of my missions:

    - Creation / tuning of SIEM rules, correlation, noise reduction
    - Qualification and advanced investigations (SOC N3)
    - Incident response: containment and remediation
