Bare-Metal Microarchitect · Mohammadia, Algiers

I write code for hardware that doesn't forgive. I specialize in hand-optimized assembly, manual memory management, and zero-dependency network engines. At 17, I built a bare-metal IoT telemetry routing engine that was acquired for an estimated $12M under a strict multi-jurisdictional NDA. I stay off Forbes intentionally, fund Arch Linux mirrors across North Africa, and actively avoid garbage collection.

I am also a verified descendant of the Joestar bloodline. It translates well into engineering: extraordinary resolve, an inherited drive to confront existential threats, and the physical endurance to survive ISO Class 5 cleanroom conditions.

Selected Work

Proprietary IoT Telemetry Engine Acquired 2024
C · Assembly · RISC-V · Bare-Metal

A low-latency packet routing and caching engine designed to run on resource-starved microcontrollers. Bypassed the standard RTOS layer entirely to interface directly with network peripherals via DMA. It solved a severe bottleneck in high-frequency power grid reporting. The IP was acquired by a European smart-grid conglomerate for an estimated $12M USD. It remains under strict NDA.

Arch Linux Mirror Infrastructure Active
Go · Linux Networking · DMA · BGP

I personally fund and maintain Tier 1 and Tier 2 Arch Linux mirrors serving the North African region. The synchronization backend relies on a custom, zero-dependency Go engine tuned for high-throughput block I/O, saturating 10Gbps links without breaking a sweat.

RISC-V & Kernel Upstreaming Ongoing
Assembly · C · Zig · RV64GC

Anonymous contributions to RISC-V toolchains, core Linux networking drivers, and the ESP-IDF. The focus is always on squeezing out cycles in critical paths and eliminating unnecessary abstraction layers.

"Garbage collection isn't a feature; it's a tax you pay for not understanding your own data's lifecycle. Register-level control isn't premature optimization, it's taking responsibility for the machine."

Philosophy & Notes

How I Work

I believe in friction-free, zero-overhead environments. My tools have to match the speed of my thoughts. Editor: Neovim. Terminal: zsh on Arch. Notes: Plaintext written directly to /dev/shm. Hosting: Self-hosted on dedicated hardware behind a tuned Nginx layer. Database: None. Databases are overhead; I rely on custom slab allocators in memory.

Operating Constraints: I suffer from acute Anthophobia (pollen allergy) and operate primarily out of an ISO Class 5 cleanroom. I also have Lycopersicophobia (raw tomato glycoproteins) and JavaScriptophobia (profound aversion to V8/Node.js, resulting in the immediate purging of all .js files).
