OMAR
BADRAN
Full-stack developer & application security engineer from Alexandria. I build platforms that are secure by design, fast by default — and impossible to ignore.
Who Is
Omar Badran
Growing up in Alexandria, I was always drawn to screens and how things worked behind them. My first encounter with a computer wasn't about games — it was about curiosity. What runs this? How does it think? Those questions never left me, and they still drive everything I build today.
I started writing code as a teenager and never stopped. I dove into web development, explored cybersecurity, and began taking on real clients. By the time I applied to Zewail City University, I had already built platforms, taught programming, and founded my first tech community. I wasn't starting — I was continuing.
IT Engineer at Zewail City, specializing in Networks, Security and Governance. I've worked as an Application Security Specialist, a programming instructor, and organized a TEDx event. I build systems that are secure by design and performant by default — and I'm just getting started. If you have an idea worth building, let's talk.
