About

Who I am and what I do

IT engineer with six years of experience running infrastructure end to end: servers, VMware ESXi virtualization, networks, Active Directory and surveillance systems. In most of the organizations I've worked for I was the only technical person — no team behind me and no escalation path, so problems start with me and end with me.

Alongside the infrastructure, I build products that actually ship: 15+ corporate websites for companies in the Saudi market, and Atebaa on Google Play with 5,000+ installs at a 4.9 rating. I'm currently extending that experience into the cloud through AWS and Linux.
