Mohamed Kasem is a Signaling and On-Board Engineer with seven years of experience designing, testing, and operating metro signaling and Centralized Train Control (CDTC) systems in Cairo. He blends hands-on rail safety work—ATP/ATO integration, deceleration monitoring, and control-panel operations—with backend and DevOps skills cultivated through freelance engineering on Upwork and AWS training. His efforts have driven measurable improvements (15% fewer emergency brakes, 99% system reliability in audits, and a 20% boost in operational efficiency) while also producing operator training and clear operational procedures. Comfortable across embedded systems, Linux administration, and cloud tooling, he is an open-source-minded engineer who thinks like both a systems integrator and a software architect. Former military engineering roles gave him disciplined project management and field troubleshooting experience that accelerates deployments under tight constraints. Based in Cairo, he favors practical, safety-first solutions that scale from code and CI/CD pipelines to live rail operations.
