Non-IT to IT: Career Transition

I know the challenges of switching industries — because I’ve done it. My journey took me from Automotive Engineer to becoming a Cybersecurity Engineer trusted by global organisations.

In this session, I’ll share my exact transition roadmap so you can confidently move from any non-IT field into tech. We’ll discuss:

• Best IT domains to explore based on your background
• How I leveraged my engineering problem-solving skills into InfoSec success
• The step-by-step career switch strategy that worked for me
• Busting myths and industry taboos about non-IT candidates in cybersecurity
• How to identify and present your transferable skills

If you’ve ever thought “IT is not for me,” my journey from the shop floor to the SOC floor will prove you wrong.
