What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can hunt and report real vulnerabilities, improve security through automation, and grow my web security and bug bounty skills with a team that values proof, impact, and remediation.

I’m a “Bug Bounty Hunter | Automation Developer” who blends security testing with practical automation. I focus on finding real-world weaknesses in web applications and servers and turning findings into clear remediation guidance.

In my current security work, I research major vulnerabilities, including misconfigurations, exposed services, and sensitive information disclosure. I perform security testing on authentication, access control, and server configurations, and I report issues with proof-of-concept, risk impact, and remediation recommendations.

Alongside security, I’ve built automation using APIs—especially WhatsApp API integration for customer communication and lead management. I also handle Meta Business Suite scheduling, Google Business Profile optimization (Local SEO), and engagement-oriented digital marketing support, bringing a fast, execution-first mindset.
