Abdulrahman AlgethamiFrom computer engineering to digital operations
I'm a computer engineer working in digital operations at Alef Lam Holdings in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
I graduated in Computer Engineering from Taif University in 2025. Today I'm a Digital Operations Associate at Alef Lam Holdings. I document workflows and requirements, review processes before they're implemented, and follow up with teams until issues are resolved. I also support reporting and task automation across the company.
I got here through hands-on work. During my co-op with the E-Health Department at King Abdullah Medical Complex, I built a website for managing CPR certificates. As a full-stack web developer intern at Saudi FoodTech, I built and launched responsive websites and tested them across devices and browsers before handoff.
I also take part in hackathons. My capstone project, SamaLinks, won first place at the Hajj Health & Security Hackathon in 2025, and I later returned to hackathons as a facilitator.
I hold the ITIL 4 Foundation certification and I'm studying for the CAPM, which I expect to complete in November 2026.
