About

I build the logic behind the screen: REST APIs, databases, authentication and payments, and the integration that connects them to mobile apps.

I can't leave a "why" unanswered, so I like to understand how a system works underneath before I build on top of it. I studied Mathematics at King Saud University, then trained as a software engineer at Tuwaiq Academy × Holberton School.

What I work with

core

Python, Flask, SQL, PostgreSQL, REST APIs, JWT

also

C, Dart (Flutter), JavaScript, Docker, Firebase, Git, Linux

currently learning

Java and Spring Boot

Where I'm heading

I want to build the systems that companies need before they can trust software with their business: secure, compliant and reliable backends.

Topics I'm exploring and building toward:

identity & access

SSO, enforced MFA, role-based access (RBAC), automatic provisioning (SCIM)

audit & compliance

Audit logs, encryption and key ownership, Saudi PDPL, NCA controls, data residency

reliability

SLAs, scalability, backups and disaster recovery

integration

Connecting new services to existing systems through APIs, in the cloud or on-premise

I write about what I learn, and I build projects around real problems. Long term, I'd like to grow into security-focused backend work, integration architecture, and technical leadership.
