About

Software engineer, security enthusiast, and the person who volunteers to fix the home server.

Riyadh, SA — KFUPM ’24

I'm Abdulrahman Alomairah, a software engineer based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. I graduated from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals in 2024 with a BSc in Software Engineering.

My work sits at the intersection of software engineering and cybersecurity. I like building systems end to end — the database, the API, the mobile client, the container it ships in, and the hardening that keeps it standing.

Outside of work I spend my time on a self-hosted homelab — services, backups, networking — and I write about the things I break and fix along the way.

I care about software that is understandable, infrastructure that is reproducible, and security that is designed in rather than bolted on.
