AWS Cloud Security Trainee - Est. 2026

Insights
that compound.

I am an Electronic Engineering student at Menoufia University with a strong focus on cloud security and offensive cybersecurity. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in AWS architecture, threat detection, and network penetration testing, allowing me to design automated, scalable security solutions. During my internships at Digital Egypt Pioneers Initiative and the National Telecommunication Institute, I gained hands‑on experience in building highly available, cost‑efficient AWS infrastructures and developing serverless remediation workflows. I thrive on turning complex security challenges into streamlined, automated processes that reduce manual effort and improve response times. I am passionate about leveraging cloud technologies to create secure, resilient environments and am eager to contribute my skills to innovative projects that push the boundaries of cybersecurity and cloud architecture.
