Software × Cloud × Architecture
Lead engineer by day, iOS reverse engineer by night. Based in Bahrain, building for everywhere.
Currently
By day I lead engineering across web, mobile, and cloud. I like designing systems that hold up under real traffic and real deadlines, and I care about the boring parts that make products feel fast and reliable, the bits users never see but always notice when they break.
By night I'm usually somewhere in iOS internals. Writing tweaks, reverse engineering apps, hooking into runtimes, patching binaries, poking at things until they tell me how they actually work. Some of it ends up on GitHub, the rest stays in private notes.
I move between Swift and Objective-C, Go and Python, TypeScript and the occasional bit of C. Cloud, low level, frontend, it all clicks together eventually. If it's a system worth understanding, I'm probably interested.
