What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on penetration testing or security engineering roles at security-focused organizations valuing collaboration, automation, continuous learning, and opportunities to lead practical vulnerability remediation.

I am an experienced software developer and penetration tester with over seven years in software development and 3.5 years focused on penetration testing. I specialize in .NET, PHP, Java, HTML, CSS and practical application security.

In my current role I conduct in-depth penetration tests on web applications, internal and wireless networks, and APIs using tools such as Nmap, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nessus and OpenVAS. I simulate phishing, privilege escalation and social engineering, and produce detailed remediation reports aligned with OWASP, PTES and NIST.

I founded and led a software company and worked as a freelance developer, giving me full SDLC experience and a client-focused approach. I build automation with Python and Bash, and deliver solutions using Java, .NET, WordPress and SQL.

My projects include e-commerce web app pen tests (SQLi, XSS), Windows AD internal assessments, API security reviews, wireless testing, and automated scanning/reporting systems that reduced manual effort. I am committed to continuous learning and applying measurable security improvements that reduce organizational risk.
