What I'm looking for

I seek roles focused on Windows internals, OS-level security, and systems tooling where I can apply low-level development, forensics, and reverse-engineering expertise while growing in research-driven teams.

I am a software engineer and security researcher from Oran, Algeria, with deep expertise in Windows internals and operating-system level development. I specialize in building both user- and kernel-mode solutions using C/C++ and Microsoft Macro Assembler.

My projects include SystemManager, a lightweight Windows system monitoring tool with real-time process, thread and memory monitoring, and DiskParser, a Windows disk forensics tool that performs NTFS metadata parsing and sector-level analysis. I also developed ServiceManager to manage Windows kernel services programmatically.

I apply strong reverse-engineering and software-debugging skills across multithreaded, object-oriented codebases, and I have supplementary experience in web and mobile development using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python. I am comfortable working with Windows API, COM, PE parsing, and low-level disk enumeration.

I am an adaptable engineer pursuing advanced study in quantum computing while holding a master's in artificial intelligence and a license in computer science—looking to contribute to teams focused on OS security, forensics, and systems tooling.
