I am Ali Itawi - a back-end engineer who treats code like chess strategy.
🧮 Raised on mathematics
♟️ Sharpened by chess
💻 Battle-tested at 42 Beirut
Where sleepless nights transformed into mastery, and C pointers became extensions of thought.
My weapon of choice? ☕ Java + Spring Boot
I architect distributed systems that don't just work - they scale, adapt, and endure. Every project is precision engineering built for the long game.
