Aspiring penetration tester with hands-on bug bounty and freelance pentesting experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an aspiring cybersecurity professional focused on penetration testing, bug bounty hunting, and practical vulnerability research. I bring hands-on experience reporting critical issues across consumer platforms and government sites.
As a penetration tester, I have identified and reported high-impact vulnerabilities including IDOR, CSRF, HTML injection, authentication bypasses, and privilege escalation, earning recognition such as a badge for a disclosed government-site issue.
In freelance engagements I conducted API penetration tests, uncovered NoSQL injection and privilege escalation flaws, and reported findings that strengthened client security postures. I work well in remote and collaborative environments and continuously expand my technical skills.
I hold a B.Tech in Cyber Security and practical familiarity with tools and domains including Python, Bash, Metasploit, container security, OSINT, cloud platforms, and web/network security, and I seek roles where I can apply offensive security skills to improve product security.
