About Me
Engineer, builder, perpetual learner.

I'm M. Alaa Hedhly — a full-stack engineer, ML practitioner, and quant developer with 4+ years of hands-on experience. I build platforms, machine learning systems, and trading tools from architecture to deployment. I also manage production infrastructure with Docker, Coolify, and Traefik across multiple self-hosted servers.
My work sits at the intersection of software engineering and applied research — clean code, reliable systems, and thoughtful interfaces.
View ResumeI build platforms, ML systems, and trading tools — from architecture to deployment.
Whether it's a Next.js web app, a PyTorch model pipeline, or an algorithmic trading engine, I care about the full picture: clean abstractions, robust infrastructure, and shipping work that holds up in production.
What I Do
Full-Stack Development
Modern, scalable web applications with React, Next.js, and Node.js. Clean architecture, performance, and considered UX.
Machine Learning
ML models for predictive analytics, NLP, and computer vision. Production-ready deployment with FastAPI and Docker.
Quantitative Development
Algorithmic trading systems, backtesting frameworks, and risk management tools. Market data analysis and strategy development.
DevOps & Infrastructure
Production servers with Coolify, Docker, and Traefik. Self-hosted full-stack applications with PostgreSQL, Redis, MinIO, and automated deployments.
