Now: Building RAG-powered AI assistant with real time streaming capabilities
Documentation gives me context & building gives me understanding. When a project needs a technology I have never touched, I learn it by building the real thing.
I design workflows that can resume safely, recover state and continue operating without manual intervention.
I'm interested in how systems fail, why attackers succeed and how better engineering reduces risk.
Teaching helps me see if I really understand something. Explaining it to different people shows me what I still need to learn.
Real projects, technical decisions, architecture and lessons learned.
Solution: Every morning at 6 AM, a cloud-hosted n8n workflow researches trending Reddit topics, writes a script with Gemini, gathers stock footage and narration, files everything into Drive and emails me the results.
Open-source maintainers are drowning in AI-written bug reports. I built the fault-tolerant pipeline creating a large-scale dataset to measure it.
Murshid watches your screen, listens in Arabic, remembers your goal and guides you through complex apps one step at a time. Six Fanar models, one agentic loop.
I built the intelligence layer behind an AI security dashboard: threat simulations, kill chains and a structured MITRE feed another team's code consumed directly.
A browser extension that flags XSS exposure as you browse: client-side input inspection and severity classification, grown out of an earlier Python scanner.
An encrypted email platform with AES-256 confidentiality, RSA-2048 key exchange, SHA-256 integrity checks and PKI authentication.
A gamified fitness app with a 2D avatar that gets healthier as you walk. Features daily streaks, leaderboards and an in‑app shop built with Flutter and Firebase.
Research, startups, teaching and student leadership. Every role added a different perspective, but the constant has been learning and building practical solutions.
Qatar Computing Research Institute (QCRI) · Cybersecurity Department, HBKU
Built the data infrastructure for research into AI-generated vulnerability reports: a resumable scraper collecting from 4,646 GitHub and GitLab repositories into PostgreSQL.
“I can translate a research question into a production-quality engineering system.”
Digibit Strategic Intelligence & Advisory Unit · Cyber, Threat Intelligence & Resilience Team
Built the threat intelligence layer behind an AI-powered security dashboard in a 15-member programme. My deliverables were live integration inputs, not standalone documents.
“I can turn threat research into structured intelligence that engineering teams consume directly.”
University of Doha for Science and Technology · Student Research Program
Contributed to the engineering and development of an AI-assisted clinical referral triage research system evaluating open-source LLMs for Emergency Severity Index (ESI) classification.
“Research is measurement. A model that can't be evaluated can't be deployed.”
Be My Sense · AI accessibility startup, Qatar
Be My Sense builds real-time speech-to-sign and sign-to-speech translation with a 3D signing avatar, covering ASL, BSL and Qatari Sign Language. I started as a content intern writing website, LinkedIn and campaign copy. Six months in, I was promoted to Marketing Lead.
“Explaining technology to strangers, in person, is a skill you only build by doing it.”
University of Doha for Science and Technology
15 hours a week and 20+ students supported since 2024, across programming, mathematics and AI coursework.
“Explaining a concept in different ways is how you find out whether you actually understand it.”
Designing experiments and custom tooling to test assumptions in AI, security and complex systems.

Clear communication is a core part of my stack. Whether presenting at workshops, running sessions or mentoring peers, I focus on bridging the gap between deep technical execution and community impact.

Every skill listed here points at the project or role where it was actually applied.
An assistant trained on my portfolio. Ask about my projects, research, experience or goals it answers as me, grounded in what I have actually done.
I am open to internships and roles across security engineering, AI security, applied AI and software engineering. I enjoy tackling interesting problems, building things from scratch and turning ideas into systems that are secure, reliable and built to scale.
