ABOUT DEVON BROWN

I’m a IT & Security Engineer who specialises in making fast-growing companies secure, scalable, and operationally sharp. I work best in high-pressure environments where clarity, precision, and smart execution actually matter.Over the last several years I’ve built and hardened IT environments across finance, deep-tech, and high-growth SaaS firms. I’m comfortable owning the entire stack — identity, endpoints, SaaS, networking, privileged access, and security controls — and I treat every environment as something that can be tightened, automated, and elevated.My work typically focuses on: • macOS security & MDM (Jamf, Kandji, Intune) • Identity & Access Management (Okta, Azure AD/Entra) • Google Workspace & Microsoft 365 hardening • MFA / YubiKey rollouts & privileged access workflows • CIS / ISO27001-aligned security uplift • DLP, EDR, SIEM (CrowdStrike, Netskope, Splunk) • Onboarding/offboarding automation & SaaS lifecycle managementI operate as a contractor across multiple organisations — currently delivering at WTTJ UK and Natcap — where I drive security improvementsand leave environments in a better state than I found them. I prioritise impact and clarity: tangible progress every week, documented changes, and a roadmap that makes sense.My background: • First-class BSc in Business Information Technology • 5+ years in IT engineering across regulated and high-growth environments • Experience supporting C-suite and technical leadership directly • Certifications: Network+, Okta Professional, Jamf 100What I’m building toward long-term: a portfolio of companies where I provide fractional IT/Security leadership, deliver high-leverage improvements, and help organisations scale without losing control of their security or operations.
