Jie Si

With 12 years of Electrical Engineering and 3 years of Project Management experience across Chemical, Oil & Gas, Power Generation, New Energy, and Mining industries, I bring a strong technical foundation and proven problem-solving abilities to the world of Cybersecurity, especially for Industrial Control Systems. Currently, I am transitioning into cybersecurity as an entry-level Ethical Hacker and Penetration Tester, with a focus on identifying vulnerabilities and strengthening organizational security.

I am actively enhancing my cybersecurity expertise through training at SAIT and practical hands-on exercises. I have completed skill paths on HackTheBox to solidify my offensive security capabilities:

Basic Toolset Path: Network Enumeration (Nmap), Login Brute Forcing, Web Application Attacks (Ffuf), Password Cracking (Hashcat), SQLMap, Network Traffic Analysis, and Web Proxies.
Bug Bounty Hunter Path: Information Gathering, SQL Injection, XSS (Cross-Site Scripting), Command Injections, File Upload Attacks, Server-Side Attacks, Web Service/API Attacks, and the Bug Bounty Hunting Process.
I am proficient in tools like Nmap, Hashcat, SQLMap, Burp Suite, and Wireshark, and I stay committed to continuous learning to keep pace with the evolving cybersecurity landscape.

My strong analytical mindset, self-motivation, and ability to adapt quickly to new technologies allow me to contribute effectively to teams and deliver measurable results. I am seeking an internship opportunity as a Cybersecurity Analyst or Penetration Tester, where I can apply my skills to identify security gaps, protect critical assets, and support organizations in improving their cybersecurity posture.
