• Chain multiple low-severity findings to identify high-impact attack paths.
• Analyze network environments, security controls, and technical configurations.
• Prepare clear and actionable technical reports, including root-cause analysis and remediation steps.
• Collaborate with technical teams to explain findings and support remediation activities.
• Stay updated on offensive security techniques, vulnerabilities, tools, and best practices.
