Summary
Jorge Reyes is a Senior Engineer based in Manitowoc, Wisconsin with four years of hands-on experience building and automating network security monitoring and infrastructure. He has designed, deployed, and tuned distributed IDS and SIEM platforms (Zeek, Suricata, Wazuh/Osquery, Strelka, Stenographer, Kibana, Splunk) and automated deployments with Python and Ansible to deliver near real-time visibility for SOC teams. His background spans tactical communications in the US Marine Corps—configuring encrypted HAIPE/TAC LANE systems—and civilian roles managing datacenter VMware stacks, Cisco networks, and high-availability Splunk services. Jorge pairs practical operations skills (device replacement, VDI, PXE/AutoDeploy recovery) with platform engineering, training analysts on custom detection rules and forensic PCAP collection. He’s comfortable translating military-grade security practices into enterprise monitoring solutions and has repeatedly led projects that balance performance, automation, and auditability. Quietly, his career shows a knack for turning manual runbooks into repeatable, automated systems that scale across distributed environments.
