I’m a self-taught Senior Offensive Security Engineer and Red Team Operator with 9 years of hands-on experience across offensive security, penetration testing, adversary simulation, vulnerability research, and real-world security operations.

I approach offensive security from both an operator and engineering perspective — not only assessing security weaknesses, but studying how offensive capabilities are designed, engineered, executed, detected, and improved.

My background covers offensive security across modern enterprise and technology environments, including:

• Web Applications
• APIs
• Networks & Infrastructure
• Cloud
• Active Directory
• Windows Security
• Enterprise Security
• IoT
• Wireless Security
• OSINT & Threat Intelligence
• Red Team Operations
• Adversary Simulation

Alongside security engagements and research, I have built and released 20+ open-source offensive security, OSINT, and bug-bounty tools, focused on reconnaissance, intelligence gathering, attack-surface discovery, automation, and vulnerability identification.

• Web Application Security
• API Security
• Network & Infrastructure Penetration Testing
• Cloud Security Testing
• Active Directory & Windows Security
• Enterprise Security & VAPT
• IoT Penetration Testing
• SCADA / ICS Security Testing
• Wireless Penetration Testing

• Red Team Operations
• Adversary Simulation & Emulation
• Advanced Red Team Tradecraft
• C2 Infrastructure & Operations
• Custom C2 Development
• Attack-Surface Mapping
• Reconnaissance & Intelligence Operations
• Threat Intelligence
• OSINT

• Vulnerability Research
• 0-Day Research
• Reverse Engineering
• Exploit Development
• Malware Development & Analysis
• Windows Internals
• Low-Level Security Research
• Security Automation
• Offensive Security Tool Development
• Bug Bounty Research

I’m currently going deeper into the low-level and research side of offensive security, focusing on:

• Advanced Red Team Tradecraft
• Windows Internals
• C / C++
• Systems Programming
• Reverse Engineering
• Malware Development & Analysis
• Exploit Development
• Vulnerability Research
• 0-Day Research
• Advanced C2 Architecture
• Custom C2 Development
• Low-Level Security

The goal is to progress beyond simply using offensive techniques — toward understanding, engineering, researching, and developing advanced offensive capabilities.

I build offensive security and intelligence tooling with an emphasis on automation, modularity, reconnaissance, research, and operational efficiency.

Advanced Bash-based OSINT framework designed for intelligence gathering and reconnaissance workflows.

Modular OSINT and threat-intelligence platform containing 20+ modules for intelligence collection and analysis.

Reconnaissance automation framework integrating tools and workflows for:

• Subdomain discovery
• HTTP probing
• Web crawling
• Historical URL discovery
• Vulnerability scanning
• Attack-surface mapping

A collection of custom offensive security, OSINT, reconnaissance, and bug-bounty automation tools developed for practical security research and operations.

0-Day / Novel Vulnerability Research

My current research interests include:

• Windows Internals
• Offensive Windows Development
• Reverse Engineering
• Malware Development
• Exploit Development
• Vulnerability Research
• 0-Day Research
• Custom C2 Architecture
• Red Team Infrastructure
• Adversary Emulation
• Low-Level Security
