@miroslavmilicevic
Offensive Security Engineer and cybersecurity researcher building secure products at the AI–security intersection.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Offensive Security Engineer and Cybersecurity Researcher focused on turning deep security expertise into reliable, scalable technology. I specialize in offensive security, custom offensive tooling, and building secure software systems.
In consulting and research work, I’ve led risk assessment and security guidance across multiple domains, with emphasis on application security and artificial intelligence security. I’ve also applied baseline security standards in the semiconductor manufacturing and supply-chain context (SEMI E187 and SEMI E188).
As a hands-on offensive operator, I’ve performed 200+ white-box, grey-box, and black-box penetration tests across web and mobile applications, corporate networks, and cloud infrastructure. I’ve developed offensive security software including command-and-control (C2) frameworks and post-exploitation implants, and I’ve run targeted phishing operations for red-team and security awareness engagements.
Earlier software engineering experience includes building Office 365 security audit software with Azure, C#, ASP.NET, PowerShell, and MongoDB, plus SIEM add-ons for Splunk and QRadar. I also publish security research on topics like drone swarm cybersecurity and misconfigurations that impact business continuity.
