03 — about
Architecture over stack.
I'm a software engineer finishing an M.Sc. in Computer & Communication Engineering. Most of my work lives in the JavaScript ecosystem, but the language is the least interesting decision — what I care about is the shape of a system: where the load lands, what happens when a call fails halfway through, what breaks first under pressure.
That instinct for structure isn't only technical — I read slowly and think in long chains of reasoning before I trust a conclusion. It shows up in how I engineer: understand the system before you touch it.
It's the same instinct behind the marketing. An audience is a system too: find where attention actually lands, fix what's leaking, then grow what works. So I don't just build your product — I help the right people find it.
Right now I'm going deeper into AI infrastructure, building Governor.

Case studies & projects
01 — LLM INFRASTRUCTURE
Governor
governor /ˈɡʌv.ər.nər/ · n. — a mechanical device that automatically limits speed. here: a gateway that automatically limits what an LLM call is allowed to cost.
A lightweight LLM gateway, built in Go (learning Go as I go). Real-time cost visibility and hard spend caps — atomic budget checks before a request goes out, mid-stream cancellation the instant one is hit — without standing up LiteLLM/Helicone-style infrastructure.

faq
Frequently asked questions
What services do you offer?
Four, which can be combined: engineering (web apps, e-commerce, management systems), marketing (paid ads, growth strategy, content), support (onboarding, maintenance, troubleshooting) and growth (social strategy, content creation, community management).
How much does a project cost?
Projects start from $120 for small jobs like fixes, landing pages or a content package. Larger systems are quoted after a free discovery call, with the price agreed in the proposal.
How quickly will you reply to an inquiry?
Within 24 hours, by email, Instagram DM or WhatsApp, whichever you used to reach me.
Do you work remotely and across time zones?
Yes. I'm based in Lebanon (UTC+2/+3) and work remotely with clients in other countries, and I plan overlap hours with your team.
Can you both build and market my product?
Yes, that's the point of se.hadi. The same person who builds your system can market it, keep it running and grow its audience, so nothing gets lost between agencies.
Do you support the system after launch?
Yes. Several of my systems are still in production, and I offer ongoing maintenance, fixes and improvements.
