Building secure, scalable cloud infrastructure — and staying ahead of threats before they become headlines. B.E. CS graduate with hands-on cloud, DevOps, and security experience.
I'm Partheeban, a B.E. Computer Science graduate from Akshaya College of Engineering and Technology, Coimbatore. I work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and cybersecurity — building systems that are not just scalable, but hardened against modern threats.
My experience spans CI/CD pipelines with Jenkins & GitHub Actions, containerization with Docker, Infrastructure-as-Code with Terraform, AWS architecture, Red Hat Linux, and active cybersecurity research including penetration testing, log monitoring, and SIEM-based SOC labs.
I've solved 20+ levels of OverTheWire Bandit CTF, attended offensive security workshops, and I'm actively building security tools — from vulnerability scanners to SIEM monitoring labs. I believe the next decade of security will be defined by AI-agent integrations, and I intend to be at the forefront.
Designing and operating secure, scalable AWS architectures following the Well-Architected Framework.
Building and maintaining automated pipelines, containerized environments, and IaC deployments.
Penetration testing, vulnerability assessment, SIEM monitoring, SOC operations, and offensive security.
Red Hat administration, system hardening, shell scripting, and cross-distro Linux operations.
TCP/IP, VLAN design, routing, switching, subnetting, firewalls — Cisco CCNA certified.
Python for automation, scripting, network tools, and security tooling. Bash for system tasks.
Dockerized web app with React frontend, Flask backend, and PostgreSQL — scans IPs/domains via Nmap and displays results in a hacker-style terminal UI. Fully provisioned with Terraform.
Built a SOC L1 lab to monitor Linux system and authentication logs using Splunk. Triaged SIEM alerts for failed logins and suspicious activity, documented incidents from log events.
AI-powered system that auto-categorizes grievances into departments and tracks resolution status. Integrated Tesseract OCR to extract text from uploaded documents. Built with Django and Scikit-learn.
Real-time packet sniffer using Scapy that captures live traffic, stores data in SQLite, and visualizes protocol distribution with pie charts for network analysis.
Containerized an open-source Concrete CMS (PHP + Apache) using Docker and automated the image build and push workflow with GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline.
Bash script that parses Linux authentication logs, identifies repeated failed login attempts, and generates basic alerts for abnormal login behavior to support security monitoring.
Configured and deployed a DNS server, covering zone file management, forward and reverse lookup zones, and DNS resolution testing in a Linux environment.
Containerized Moodle LMS using Docker, setting up the full stack with database persistence, environment configuration, and verified end-to-end functionality.
Python script using socket programming to scan and identify open TCP ports on target systems. Built to strengthen understanding of networking fundamentals and basic security testing.
Monitoring setup for MySQL database — tracking performance metrics, query health, and connection states to support proactive database operations management.
Tkinter GUI application that evaluates password strength with color-coded visual feedback, reinforcing understanding of brute-force attack patterns and secure password design.
A URL shortening web application with frontend JavaScript interface and backend logic for generating and resolving short links.
60-hour intensive covering scalable AWS architecture design, core services, security best practices, and cloud-native patterns.
Comprehensive Red Hat Enterprise Linux administration — system management, storage, networking, and security hardening.
Full Cisco CCNA track: Introduction to Networks, Switching Routing & Wireless Essentials, and Enterprise Networking Security & Automation.
Applied Python programming for cybersecurity tasks — automating security workflows, building tools, and scripting threat detection logic.
Comprehensive cybersecurity training: threat detection, incident response, SIEM, network security, and security operations (ongoing).
Completed the RIM Specialist program covering Cybersecurity fundamentals, cloud, Linux administration, and networking principles.
Broke down a major vulnerability affecting GitHub Copilot and VS Code: prompt injection → config manipulation → auto-approve abuse → full local RCE — with potential worm-like propagation. Mitigations: update to patched versions, audit auto-approve settings, protect workspace configs from untrusted repos.
Wrapped 60 hours of deep-dive AWS architecture training: scalable system design, fault-tolerant infrastructure, security best practices, and cloud-native patterns. Now applying these frameworks in production infrastructure work.
Started a new chapter in DevOps and cloud engineering — working with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, Terraform, and AWS in a fast-paced startup, contributing beyond technical scope to strengthen both infrastructure and team operations.
Open to cloud engineering roles, DevOps positions, security collaborations, and conversations about where infrastructure and security intersect.
