About Pranab Chakravarty

I’m a Cloud Security Engineer passionate about building secure, compliant, and automated cloud environments. With a background in full stack development and DevOps, I bring a holistic understanding of how applications are built, deployed, and secured across the cloud.My expertise lies in AWS IAM, Python-based automation, and policy enforcement using OPA (Rego) to strengthen cloud governance and prevent misconfigurations. I focus on implementing proactive security controls, automating compliance checks, and simplifying remediation for cloud-native services.Having worked across development, automation, and security, I aim to specialize fully in cloud security engineering, focusing on identity and access management, infrastructure security, and compliance automation. I’m driven by continuous learning, hands-on experimentation, and the mission to make cloud environments more secure by design.Core Skills:Cloud Security | AWS | IAM | Rego (OPA)| Python Automation | DevSecOps | OpenShift (OCP)| Jenkins | Flask
