Self-Taught Low-Level Security Professional Seeks Career Guidance

The poster has self-studied low-level security, listing skills such as C programming, memory management, debugging, fuzzing, reverse engineering, and binary analysis, along with tools like GDB, Ghidra, AFL++, and Valgrind. They lack a computer science degree, internships, Capture The Flag (CTF) achievements, or published Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs). They are seeking advice on suitable roles, identifying skill gaps, building a portfolio, and determining next steps in their career. Their learning approach has focused on reading documentation, hands-on experimentation, and crash analysis. Concerns include limited tangible evidence of expertise to present to recruiters.
