Highlighted candidates
Cyber Security Professional
Today I want to highlight an incredibly talented cybersecurity professional who just passed one of the hardest offensive security certifications in the industry — the OSEP (OffSec Experienced Penetration Tester).
For those unfamiliar, OSEP is not an “entry-level badge.” It’s a deep, real-world red-team exam that requires:
• Advanced AD
Today I want to highlight an incredibly talented cybersecurity professional who just passed one of the hardest offensive security certifications in the industry — the OSEP (OffSec Experienced Penetration Tester).
For those unfamiliar, OSEP is not an “entry-level badge.” It’s a deep, real-world red-team exam that requires:
• Advanced AD exploitation
• Evasion-focused tradecraft
• Custom tooling
• Lateral movement
• Post-exploitation strategy
• Bypassing modern defensive controls
Passing OSEP demonstrates elite offensive proficiency — the kind of skill set that stops breaches before they happen.
What makes him even more impressive?
He combines OSEP-level capability with:
✔ 5+ years of penetration testing, red-team emulation, and DevSecOps
✔ 10+ years of hands-on system administration across Windows, Linux, cloud & network environments
✔ Experience designing security tools, building automations, and improving processes end-to-end
✔ Solid foundation in DFIR, scripting (Python, PowerShell), cloud security (AWS/Azure), and containerization
He has contributed to major offensive security initiatives, led teams, and created innovative tools, all while maintaining a reputation for curiosity, humility, and relentless improvement.
He is actively seeking a new opportunity in:
🔹 Penetration Testing
🔹 Red Team
🔹 Offensive Security Engineering
🔹 Application or Cloud Security
🔹 DevSecOps (Offensive-leaning)
If your organization is looking for someone who can elevate your security posture on day one, this is a candidate you will want to speak with.
Feel free to message me directly — I’m helping him navigate opportunities and would love to introduce him.
