I'm Mohamad Nihad Alsufe — a 17-year-old entrepreneur, full-stack developer, and competitive speedcuber based in Sharjah, UAE 🇦🇪, originally from Homs, Syria 🇸🇾.
At an age when most people are figuring out what they want to do, I've already built two operating companies, led a school tech team to national competition wins, shipped AI products used by real users, won a UAE Ministry of Education national championship, placed 2nd at the Safe AI Cup 2026, and earned a Gold Medal at Innovation Nation 2026 — competing at the Arab regional level.
I build across the full stack: mobile apps in Flutter, web platforms in Next.js and React, AI automation pipelines with LangChain and n8n, backends in FastAPI and NestJS, cloud infrastructure on AWS and GCP, and Shopify themes in Liquid. I'm also a GCAA-licensed drone operator, an Apple Developer Program member since age 10, and the founder of the Syrian Speedcubing Community.
My two companies are active and generating revenue. My code is in production. And I'm just getting started.
"Build first. Talk later."
