Abdulselam Adill Mohammed

Software Engineer | Neuroscience Researcher

I build systems at the intersection of software engineering, data, and neuroscience. My work spans distributed systems, backend infrastructure, low-level systems programming, and computational research.

Engineering Focus

  • I build backend services that are easy to reason about, reliable under failure, and fast enough to trust in production.
  • I design event-driven systems with practical retry and queueing strategies so they stay stable when traffic spikes.
  • I ship infrastructure that is deployable and observable, with CI/CD workflows that make releases safer.

Research Focus

  • I'm especially interested in visual circuits in Drosophila, including navigation and figure-ground separation.
  • I build reproducible behavioral analysis pipelines so results are consistent and easy to validate.
  • I use computational models and statistics to turn neuroscience questions into testable, interpretable results.
