Work Experience

Mapfre through Viewnext

Architecture and Development Security

2024 - present Madrid, Spain | 100% Remote

Developing security automation solutions in Mapfre's Security department, creating GitHub Actions that integrate Trivy and Checkmarx for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) security scanning across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Implement custom security checks using Python based on team-defined security requirements, building automated pipelines that generate comprehensive vulnerability reports. Act as technical bridge between DevOps and Security teams, facilitating the integration of security practices into the development pipeline while maintaining a shift-left security approach.
