A third-year computer science student from Algeria, building toward backend engineering and application security, and caring about why systems work, not only that they do.
A deliberately small stack, so I can go deep instead of wide.
Two substantial projects instead of many small ones.
A collaborative, multi-tenant cloud platform for API mocking, contract validation and distributed resilience testing.
Android malware analysis and detection, investigating how machine learning can tell benign apps from malicious ones.
What I want to be able to do as an engineer.
Complete systems, not just endpoints: schema design, transactions, multi-tenancy, caching, background jobs, testing and clean architecture.
Access control, input validation, token handling and injection prevention on the backend, plus APK analysis and reverse engineering on mobile.
The full pipeline from features and labels to evaluation with precision, recall and F1, applied to real security data.
Where I am and where I am heading.
Building the two main projects while studying for CompTIA Security+ SY0-701.
Computer networks, protocols, cloud infrastructure, secure deployment, and Go.
A master's in networking and cloud security, ideally with a scholarship, with research as a possible path.
