Who I am

A threat intelligence engineer with four-plus years of professional experience across threat intelligence and security engineering roles, currently working within a leading global threat intelligence provider. My background is engineering-first — a BEng in Automation and an MSc in Software Development — which shapes how I approach intelligence problems: as systems to be measured, automated, and improved, not just maintained.

What I specialise in

Threat intelligence collection, processing, enrichment, and automation — building the pipelines and tooling that turn raw, fragmented threat data into something an analyst can actually act on. In practice that's meant building automated collection systems, including reverse-engineering applications and undocumented APIs to scrape data at scale while maintaining strict operational security; integrating and automating SOAR/SIEM platforms; identifying novel collection methods; and improving the accuracy of the data feeding intelligence pipelines upstream.

What interests me

Automation, data quality, intelligence architecture, and emerging collection techniques. I'm particularly drawn to specialist collection efforts — scraping specific data sources and processing the output into a usable format that actually informs decision-making — and that's where I want to keep adding value.
