Hello, I’m Awal.

I’m an engineer who builds systems that work and a musician who lives for the moments that matter. This is my space for tools, stories, music, and life in motion.

Currently Working On

  • Scaling Oxidized, config-backup automation for CPE in-field
  • Building GhostPanel: personalized dashboard with private-ai in-built
  • Expansion of XGS-PON island-wide
  • Auto-detection of CPE vulnerabilities with inventory assets

Elsewhere I Work
