Over the last 10 years, my professional experience has touched on Education, Professional Consulting, IT Management, E-Commerce, and I hold my MA in English teaching. I have helmed numerous, extremely successful software development teams within the companies I have worked at, on projects of large complexity, some with millions of users and in revenue.

    Email: dnairoukh at thezest dot dev

    I'm Diab Neiroukh. I'm a student who has taken a year out and is looking for work (part or full-time) during such; I'm also happy to continue on with any full-time work as part-time through into my studies [provided the hours are reasonable]. I study a joint major of Computing Science and Physics (as a BSc).

    I've had at least three years of experience managing Linux servers, and once set up a Windows network for a local, private school. I know C#, JS, and Python [the latter more so] but am adaptable to other languages (see my work in C on Android/Linux kernels, and brief Java usage on other Android projects) and would be open to work as a Junior Developer/Software Engineer. I also maintain a fork of NGINX aiming to improve performance [and security] of the web server called Zestginx [1].

    I've also dabbled in many different areas outside of the above (from audio signal processing to compilers and assembly to graphics design) a few of which are visible on my GitHub [2] and GitHub Gists [3]. This allows me to often give a unique view on topics using knowledge from other "departments".

  • rotated-array-set

    A sorted array with O(lg n) access and O(√n) inserts and deletes

  • https://homes.cs.washington.edu/~magda/papers/wang-cidr17.pd...

    I'm most interested in developing high-performance database engines in low-level languages, but open to any challenging systems programming project. I've been working in C++ for the last 2 years, but have written nontrivial projects in Rust and Java as well (e.g., https://github.com/senderista/rotated-array-set, https://github.com/senderista/hashtable-benchmarks). I would enjoy using Rust or Zig on a new project, but I consider the project itself to be much more important than the language it's written in. I am not interested in cryptocurrency, adtech, or fintech projects.

  • hashtable-benchmarks
