Summary
Heenashree Khandelwal is a Technical Program Manager and former Senior Security Engineer with nine years of experience designing and delivering identity-first security at scale for Amazon and enterprise clients. She leads tier-1 IAM stewardship for one of the world’s largest Active Directory and Entra ID deployments, drove an 85% reduction in permanent privileged access via JIT/PAM, and built automated drift-detection SOAR tooling using AWS Lambda and DynamoDB. Comfortable bridging Legal, Privacy, and engineering, she translates least-privilege policy into executable technical milestones and secure-by-default infrastructure patterns using AWS CDK. A hands-on technologist who still reaches for Python, she has deep experience hardening cloud fleets, securing M365/Gen-AI rollouts, and aligning architectures to NIST controls—skills that make her effective at both strategic program leadership and low-level automation.
