Freelance IT & Security Engineer · Open to new projects

Jacopo Martinuzzi

I help startups and organizations tackle security, DevOps, and IT infrastructure — remotely, as a contractor. Zero Trust, cloud IAM, Atlassian platforms, and everything in between. Based in Japan.

What I do

I work with startups and growing organizations as a remote contractor.

Security Engineering

Zero Trust architecture, IAM design (Okta, Entra ID, AWS IAM), cloud security posture, compliance readiness (PCI-DSS, NIST), and security automation.

DevOps & Cloud Infrastructure

AWS, Azure, and GCP infrastructure managed with Terraform. CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes, observability stacks, and infrastructure as code at scale.

Atlassian Administration

Advanced Jira and Confluence configuration, complex workflow design, automation rules, permission governance, and platform migrations for engineering teams.

IT Systems & Automation

End-to-end IT systems management: MDM rollouts, identity lifecycle, SaaS onboarding, vendor consolidation, and Python-based workflow automation.
