Is there anything wrong with publishing a ransomware code?

I'm new to the cyber security field and I need some advice. I recently wrote a ransomware program in python because i was curious about how it works. I tested the program and confirmed that encryption and decryption of files works as intended. I want to publish it on github to show potential employers, but I'm wondering if this kind of a thing is frowned upon by the community since anyone could use my program for malicious purposes. If so, is there an alternative way I could show my code to employers?
