A self-taught full-stack developer & network security engineer with 3 years of hands-on experience. I build clean web apps, automate workflows, and harden systems — from the frontend to the firewall.
I'm Alireza Zarifian, a developer from Iran with 3 years of experience across full-stack development and network security. I started with web design, moved into Python and backend development, and eventually got pulled deep into the security side of things.
I'm self-taught — no bootcamp, no classroom. Just curiosity, late nights, and a lot of broken code and broken packets that eventually worked. Every project and pentest teaches me something I couldn't have learned any other way.
On the dev side I work with Python and modern web stacks. On the security side I focus on network security, vulnerability assessment, and hardening Linux systems. I like understanding how things break so I can build them to last.
When I'm not coding or scanning networks, I'm reading about new attack vectors, contributing to open-source, or helping other beginners get unstuck.
Tools, languages, and domains I use to build, automate, and secure.
Real projects — not tutorials. Things I built to solve actual problems or learn something new.
Self-taught, step by step. 3 years of building, breaking, and learning.
I'm open to freelance projects, security audits, collaborations, or just a good conversation about tech. If you have an interesting idea — reach out. I reply to everyone.
