I'm holding out for a Breaking Bad style show about a software consultant who realizes how much money they can make by pivoting to running a malware ransom ring

As others have suggested, Mr. Robot isn't quite this but it's close, and extremely well made. One of the best TV shows ever in my opinion.

I'd argue it lays "evil corporations are evil" a bit too thick, and the ending IMHO is way too overwrought, but it's a pretty well made show.

Love Mr. Robot, but Elliot is a social/political actor.

I’m looking for a Walter White money fiend

Its not exactly that, but Mr. Robot is excellent if you haven't seen it.
