What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can perform real VAPT and red team-style assessments, write actionable findings with PoCs, and grow into OSCP-level depth—while collaborating in a hands-on security culture.

I’m a cybersecurity professional specializing in Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT), with hands-on experience from red team internships and lab environments. I assess network and web applications end-to-end, using tools like Nmap, Burp Suite, Metasploit, and Wireshark, and I prioritize clear risk severity ratings, PoC documentation, and practical remediation recommendations.

I’m certified with eJPT and actively preparing for OSCP, and I’ve ranked in the top 3% on TryHackMe. I also strengthen capability-building through leadership—mentoring 350+ students and authoring comprehensive red team training lab manuals—because I enjoy turning real findings into repeatable, measurable learning.
