  • Experience with Akamai Security Suite (Kona WAF, Account/Content Protector, Bot Manager, API Security).
  • Experience with Cloudflare Enterprise Security (WAF, Bot Management, API Gateway).
  • Edge defense knowledge (DDoS protection, geo/IP access control, reverse proxy).
  • Security certifications: OSCP, CEH, GIAC, CISSP, or equivalent.

Soft Skills
