DevSecOps Automation & Security Engineer

I am a creative, enthusiast, flexible and proactive person, willing to learn. I currently work as DevSecOps Automation & Security Engineer in Swisscom within my team where we ensure that every step of the software development life cycle (SDLC) follows security best practices. I finished a Master’s Degree in Cybersecurity at UNIR, where I did my Master's thesis about Hacking WiFi with Telefónica. In addition, I am always improving myself and extend my knowledge in cyber security and ethical hacking.
