Senior Application Security Engineer with over 10 years of IT experience, including 4+ years specialized in offensive AppSec. Currently, I drive security at a major product company, focusing on Secure SDLC implementation, automation, and comprehensive security assessments across Web, API, and Mobile platforms. I approach applications with an attacker’s mindset but always ground my strategy in business context and engineering efficiency. My goal is to bridge the gap between security and development: finding real-world vulnerabilities while reducing scanner noise and building seamless processes for developers. - Active CTF Player: 16th place at Amazon AppSec CTF 2025 (EMEA), Standoff participant. - Certified Professional: OSCP, OSWE, CWEE, eMAPT, CAPT/CIPT. - Tool Builder: Developing custom Python and AI-driven tools to enhance AppSec workflows.
