02 / THE CAPABILITIES
The craft behind
the experience.
Good software connects the interface, the intelligence, and the systems underneath. That’s where my experience comes together.
Apps & experiences
Native mobile apps and modern web interfaces, with considered interactions and a clear path from first use to everyday value.
Applied AI
Commercial problem-solving with classical machine learning, neural networks and CNNs for computer vision, and LLM workflows. I choose methods around the problem and draw on research when needed.
Security & systems
Experience with encryption, authentication, networking, and low-level systems, alongside vulnerability investigation and remediation.
Hardware & embedded
Engineering beyond the screen: electronics, PCB design, ARM microcontrollers, and embedded control, including an EMG-driven prosthetic hand and Raspberry Pi vision projects.
From idea to delivery
Full-stack architecture, APIs, cloud deployment, testing, and technical leadership that connect the product to the engineering underneath.
Solving within constraints
A generalist’s approach to difficult problems: connect ideas across disciplines, work with the limitations, and find a practical way forward.
03 / MEET THE MAKER
Hi, I’m Layth.
Curiosity is my
starting point.
I’m a generalist software engineer and technical lead, comfortable connecting apps, AI, cybersecurity, networking, and embedded systems. I enjoy taking an idea all the way through to something people can use.
I’ve been a problem solver since my university years. Difficult mental challenges are part of what I enjoy about engineering—especially finding a way forward within real limitations, whether that’s hardware, time, or the resources available.
My work reaches from healthcare collaboration and financial data platforms to PCB design, ARM microcontrollers, and an EMG-driven prosthetic hand. That breadth shapes how I build: understand the whole system, then bring the right tools to the problem.
I hold DeepLearning.AI certifications and am currently studying part-time for an MSc in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Essex in the UK.
My name, Lyth, means lion in Arabic. I write it as Layth to make it easier to read and say. Fun Lion Studios is a little of that identity in everything I build.
BEYOND THE APP SCREEN
A deeper engineering foundation.
Selected research and earlier technical work that inform the way I build today.
