Security engineer. 10+ years reversing DRM systems, Android app protections, and low-level binary obfuscation.
I break content protection stacks (Widevine · FairPlay · PlayReady), reverse mobile security at scale
(MetaSec · MTGSig · SecurityGuard), and build offensive tooling that bridges static analysis and runtime instrumentation.
