About

Hi, I'm Abdallah Shehawey— an Electronics & Communication Engineering graduate from Al-Azhar University (Cairo, May 2026 — Cumulative Grade: Very Good) who fell in love with what happens below the operating system. I write firmware in C/C++, build device drivers from the datasheet up, and care about deterministic, real-time code.

My focus is automotive-grade embedded software: RTOS-based architectures, communication protocols (CAN, LIN, UART, SPI, I2C), and the AUTOSAR layered architecture. My graduation project was a V2X collision-avoidance vehicle, graded Excellent, and these days I'm digging deeper into Embedded Linux — kernel fundamentals, Yocto, and Buildroot. This blog is where I write that part down.

When I'm not shipping firmware, I teach — I've trained 200+ students in C and embedded systems through AZEX and Google Developer Student Club at my university — and I sharpen my skills in coding competitions and hackathons.

In my free time I do a lot of vibe coding — I love picking up new things, which is really what pulled me into it in the first place. I'm constantly building something different every few days, just to learn and explore.
