I build cloud infrastructure that ships fast, costs less, and is engineered to resist breach at every layer.

Third-year CS student at Alexandria University (Class of 2027) — and I've spent those years building production-grade systems across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Huawei Cloud in environments where cost, security, and uptime actually matter.

In December 2025, my team became the first Egyptian team in history to win Huawei Cloud Spark Infinity North Africa — competing against 389 teams and formally recognised by Egypt's Ministry of Higher Education. Two months later, I ranked in the top 0.1% of 3,146 students at the Huawei ICT Competition Africa.

"A pipeline without security gates isn't CI/CD — it's just fast shipping of problems."


Recognition

🏆 1st Place Huawei Cloud Spark Infinity 2025, North Africa · 389 teams · First Egyptian team to win
🥉 Bronze Medal Huawei ICT Competition 2025–2026, Cloud Track · Top 0.1% of 3,146 participants nationally
🏅 Top 5 (1%) Huawei Developer Competition 2024, North Africa · 650+ teams

Projects

1. Strata-Ops — 6-Phase Cloud-Native DevSecOps Migration (AWS)

→ View on GitHub   Status

Production-grade migration of a 5-tier Java application — from bare VMs to fully managed AWS cloud-native — with security enforcement at every layer. 300+ Terraform resources across 3 AZs. 3 independent CI/CD pipelines. Every security tool configured as a hard blocker — failures abort, never warn.

Key Results:

Metric Before After
Infrastructure cost $150/mo $20/mo (87% reduction)
Deployment time 45 min < 10 min
EKS cluster setup 40 min 12 min (70% reduction)
Hardcoded secrets Present Zero — SSM + External Secrets Operator
Manual steps 50+ 0

Phase Progress:

Phase Focus Platform Status
1 Manual → Automated (Vagrant + Bash) VirtualBox ✅ Done
2 AWS Lift & Shift · Jenkins JCasC · SonarQube · Nexus EC2 + Terraform ✅ Done
3 Cloud-Native: RDS · ElastiCache · MQ · Beanstalk CodePipeline ✅ Done
4.1 Containerization + Ansible Automation Docker Compose + EC2 ✅ Done
4.2 ECS Fargate + GitOps + Datadog Full Stack GitHub Actions ✅ Done
5 Amazon EKS + Helm + IRSA + ALB Ingress Controller EKS ✅ Done
6 GitOps (ArgoCD) + Chaos Engineering + FinOps EKS + ArgoCD 🔄 Coming Soon

Security gates built into every pipeline:

Tool Gate Type
OWASP Dependency-Check Hard blocker — failedTotalCritical: 0
SonarQube / SonarCloud Hard blocker — quality gate must pass
Trivy (FS + Config + Image) CVE scanning with SARIF → GitHub Security
TruffleHog Secrets scanning — blocks on any finding
Checkov + tfsec + Kube-score IaC misconfig blocking before deployment
AWS SSM + External Secrets Operator Zero plaintext credentials in code or config
