Summary
Alessandro Romani is a Staff Security Engineer specializing in detection and response with eight years of deep experience across SOC, incident response, and SIEM architecture. He has led EMEA CIRT teams and ArcSight use-case development, and now applies that operational expertise at Auth0 after senior roles at King and adidas. Comfortable with low-level analysis and pragmatic engineering, he pairs malware and network forensics skills with scripting (Python, Bash) and database/web experience to build repeatable detection and mitigation workflows. His toolset spans ArcSight, Snort, Wireshark and a wide range of commercial appliances, reflecting a hands-on approach to both tuning IDS/IPS and automating alerts. Based in Terrassa, Catalonia, he brings a rare combination of large-enterprise SOC leadership and developer mindset—originally trained in electronic engineering and software development—which helps him bridge security research and production engineering.
