Oussema Jaouadi

Software & Site Reliability Engineer

I'm a Software and Reliability Engineer who loves creating systems that make a real impact. What excites me most isn't just deploying or maintaining them, but being part of the entire journey — shaping the architecture, making technical decisions, and seeing ideas come to life in production. Open to new challenges and relocation opportunities.

About Me

Software Engineer & System Architect. I design, build, and ship — from data model to deployed infrastructure.

Who I am

M.Eng in Computer Networks & Telecommunication Engineering (INSAT, 2025). I build products end-to-end — backend services, system architecture, and the infrastructure they run on. Redistra, an open-source Redis admin platform with RBAC, audit logs, and a dedicated landing page, is the kind of work I do: full ownership, shipped and public.

How I work

Language-agnostic and architecture-first. I pick the right tool for the problem — whether that's Python, Go, TypeScript, C#, or Bash. I've run multi-cloud production environments, designed and operated distributed service platforms, and owned mobile release pipelines across both major app stores. Security isn't a checkbox: I've authored CTF challenges, trained junior engineers in penetration testing, and hardened production supply chains against real threats.

What I bring

Delivered across internships, remote international teams, and open-source — always with growing scope and ownership. I make architectural decisions, mentor juniors, own cloud costs, and ship features. Available now for roles where engineering means real responsibility.
