Let's skip the generic tutorials:

Build A Production Fullstack AI Application
And Gain The Portfolio Power
Impossible To Ignore

Generic tutorials and basic "API wrapper" apps aren't enough anymore. Whether you're trying to break into the industry or trying to stop feeling left behind at your current job, you need real architectural experience. In this live, 2-day training, we will build a production-grade fullstack AI application from scratch and master the deep engineering decisions that make your expertise undeniable.

Featuring Two Keynote Experts

Join live sessions with Sami Shames El Deen and Lara Wehbe and learn the exact fullstack and AI engineering decisions behind this build.

[ 01 ]The Problem

The “Entry-Level” Trap Is Real…

Right now, you are likely stuck in the most frustrating loop in the tech industry: you need experience to get a job, but you need a job to get experience.

You were told that graduating with a degree would be enough. You were told that following a YouTube tutorial to build a basic weather app would fill up your CV.

You were lied to.

Hiring managers are drowning in thousands of identical resumes. If your portfolio looks like everyone else’s, nobody is going to call you back for an interview.

There is still a window to level up. It is summer, and while many people pause their job search, you can use the next few weeks to build one serious project that proves you can ship in the AI era.

A wall of identical resumes

[ 02 ]The Solution

Enter The 2-Day SE × AI Challenge

Over two focused days, we build a real-world fullstack AI application from scratch. You will see the full process: architecture choices, tradeoffs, and how to talk through your approach in an interview.

01

The Full-Stack Blueprint

Plan a complex project from backend foundations to AI service integration, and show hiring managers that you understand systems, not just syntax.

02

The “Senior” Architecture Flex

How to build the database architecture, the service layer, and the UI design so your portfolio literally screams “Senior Engineer” to any recruiter who opens your GitHub.

03

The AI Taming Protocol

Build prompts and guardrails that produce structured, reliable outputs with fewer hallucinations so your AI features hold up in production.

Last Call

The Clock Is Ticking.

This is a live event, and seats are limited. Reserve your spot, show up ready to build, and leave with a portfolio project you can confidently walk through with recruiters and hiring managers.

What Previous Students Achieved

These outcomes come from students who applied the same planning, engineering, and AI integration approach taught in this challenge.

I wish there were words akbar mn thank you! Your SE² program didn't just teach me it transfromed me. It even helped me stand out during my internship!

Mohammad Kassem Amro

Freelancer, Beirut

Selected to build a project for the Ministry of Youth & Sports

Before SE², I was just writing code. In 2 months, my mentality completely changed; I started thinking like a true software engineer. And during my technical interview, the best practices and tips I learned were exactly what the interviewers wanted to see. The program gives you everything you need to launch your SWE journey.

Abdulrahman

Fulltimer, Beirut

Passed technical interview & transformed engineering mindset in 2 months

The foundation and portfolio I built with SE² are undeniable. The program's intense focus on detail gave me such a strong base that I easily passed both technical interviews. Not only did I get the job offer, but I also had the leverage to negotiate the exact terms I wanted.

Marwa Zeineddine

Software Engineer, Lebanon

Landed job offer & successfully negotiated terms

I just got the good news—the base salary for my new role is $3,200! I honestly don't know how to thank Sami and the program enough for the guidance that helped me reach this level.

Marwan

Software Engineer

Secured a job offer with a $3,200 base salary

This is more than just a course; it's a complete ecosystem from A to Z. It took me from being a 'lost' developer to a true engineer capable of handling large-scale complexity cleanly and architecturally. Between the market-driven workshops and the straightforward CV and interview prep, it put me on the exact right track. It's the best investment I ever made.

Youniss Jaafil

Software Engineer, Lebanon

Received 5+ job offers in a month and secured a role with a $1,500+ salary

I'm happy to share that I've been accepted as a Mid-Senior Frontend Web Developer! I am really grateful for all the support and guidance from the program that helped me reach this level and prove my expertise in the field.

Lynn Hourieh

Frontend Web Developer

Landed a Mid-Senior Frontend Web Developer role

I already had a decent background in async programming, but the way the concepts were explained and the challenges were structured took my understanding to another level. The Web Fundamentals course completely elevated my technical skills.

Ali Ibrahim

CS Student, Beirut

Mastered advanced web concepts and leveled up technical understanding

For the first time, I truly understand JavaScript. The program helped me grasp the concepts incredibly fast while still diving deep into how things actually work under the hood.

Oday Aridi

I'm a self-learner who started alone and almost gave up. This program gave me the skills, resources, and projects I needed — and the courage to take on my first freelance project, building a recommendation system for a client who was happy with the results.

Rami Assaf

First paid freelance project

Two years after your first LinkedIn course, I'm really seeing the results. Recruiters have started reaching out to me on LinkedIn with opportunities at their companies — the practical tips and technical skills made a real difference.

Zahraa Mahdi

n8n Automation Developer, Beirut

Inbound recruiter offers on LinkedIn

You can't compare this to a Master's — it teaches practical skills you don't usually get at university. I'm in the second year of my AI PhD, and this course gave me exactly what I needed to convince my supervisor I was up to the challenge. My first paper was accepted at IWBBIO 2025.

Mireille Jabbour

AI PhD Student

Convinced PhD supervisor; paper accepted at IWBBIO 2025

The advice on how to plan and structure a project was incredibly helpful. I started two internships — on the first, I set the initial project plan, a senior engineer confirmed it was perfectly on point, and I was even asked to evaluate him.

Souad Khalifeh

AI Engineer & Content Creator

Two internships — evaluated a senior engineer

I landed an internship at a big company, and the Accelerator played a big role. It wasn't only about learning AI — it taught me to build projects, create an online presence, and follow a clear path. The internship even comes with a possible full-time offer at the end.

Hussein Ibrahim

AI Engineer Intern

Internship at a major company (FT track)

I landed a position as an AI Engineer at a startup. The course this summer and your push to post on LinkedIn made a huge difference — I actually got the job by reaching out to someone I found through a LinkedIn post.

Youmna Hammoud

AI & Software Engineer, Beirut

AI Engineer role at a startup

I accepted an offer as a Software & AI Engineer at a startup, where I'm the sole engineer owning the full stack from architecture to deployment. The focus on real-world preparation is exactly what gave me the confidence to take this on solo.

Najat Ghadboun

Software & AI Engineer

AI Engineer offer — owns full stack solo

Guess what? I got a job offer with a 2k+ salary! You never hesitated to support me, and I recommend this program — especially the Accelerator — for anyone seeking advanced skills and standout positions in AI.

Fatima

Career Accelerator Graduate, Beirut

2k+ salary job offer

From your AI Accelerator I got a job in less than three months at a 2k salary. I'd been searching for over a year on LinkedIn with no luck, but the LinkedIn tips and technical skills helped me find exactly what I needed.

Batoul

Career Accelerator Graduate, Beirut
