01 / Selected work
Products made for actual use.
Not concepts or course exercises. Software shipped, tested and used outside a portfolio page.
02 / About
The interesting part begins when an idea meets reality.
I’m Jad, a computer engineering student at Politecnico di Milano. I care about the part after an idea sounds good: making it survive real users, institutional constraints and imperfect data.
That has meant publishing native iOS apps, connecting software to Italian public-sector systems, building a coverage-guided GUI fuzzer and contributing to indoor-tracking research with MIT.
Useful first
A clear problem is more valuable than a fashionable stack.
Own the details
Interfaces, edge cases and documentation are all part of the product.
Ship, then learn
Real feedback beats another week of polishing assumptions.
03 / Background
Work and study, without the inflated résumé language.
