About Me

Naim Albadawi

I'm a graduating Software Engineering student from Western University with a passion for cybersecurity and full-stack development. I completed a co-op position as an IT Analyst in Vulnerability Management at Ontario Health, where I focused on securing enterprise infrastructure and managing vulnerabilities.

My expertise spans across security compliance, vulnerability remediation, network security, and cloud technologies. I've built solutions ranging from secure body-scanning systems to full-stack web applications with complex backend architectures.

I'm constantly learning and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with modern tech stacks, always focused on delivering measurable impact.
