For junior developers and CS students who can prompt AI better than they can write code. Three pillars and a supervision team on your performance, until you reach the level where teams fight to keep you
Students who started where you are, in their own words
98 engineers and students applied to SE² this year and rated themselves. AI prompting: 5.5 out of 10. Coding: 1.6 out of 5. More than half gave themselves a 1
AI writes the code. You stop understanding it. You lose control of the project, then your motivation, and drift to the next tutorial. You don't have a discipline problem. You have a structure problem
Not a bootcamp that teaches you to code. An engineering accelerator: three pillars, and individual supervision wrapped around all of them
No cohort, and no folder of videos and silence. Three pillars, with individual supervision wrapped around all of them
Pillar 1 · Logic to OOP
Stop freezing on the basic questions
Most people skip this because it feels basic. Then an interviewer asks a basic question and they freeze
Pillar 2 · Two real projects
Two projects. Not a to-do app
First, a full-stack system you build with the team from A to Z, around 7,000 to 10,000 lines of code. Then your own project: a real solution for a real business, designed before you write a line of code
Pillar 3 · CV, LinkedIn, offers
Get picked over the other candidate
The team has sat on the hiring side, so you learn what gets asked and why one candidate gets picked over another. Plus the part nobody teaches: salary negotiation
About 15 hours a week. Keep your job. Keep your semester
SE² was founded by Sami, who has more than 7 years of experience in software engineering. He was a Senior Software Engineer at Murex, then moved into a lead position at Valsoft, and left that job to run SE² full time. Today SE² is a registered Lebanese company with around 200 active students, and 80,000 people follow samish.dev for how he talks about this field: no shortcuts

45 minutes with the team, not a payment link. We map your level together, you get the exact investment and payment plan for your situation, and you leave knowing what your next six months should look like, with us or without us
The SE² Engineering Accelerator
About 15 hours a week · Keep your job or your semester
What you get
It's not free, and it's not the price of a video course. You start with a deposit, then installments, and the team gives you the exact number on the call
SE² Engineering Accelerator
Two kinds of people. Students and fresh graduates ready to put in 15 hours a week to become genuinely job-ready. And working juniors who are done getting zero code review and want the junior to senior transition supervised. It's not for you if you want AI to do the work while you collect a certificate, if you can't commit the hours, or if you're hunting for the cheapest option
No. Half of our applicants rated themselves a 1 out of 5 on development. That's exactly where we start: the first pillar rebuilds your foundations from logic and memory up
About 15 hours a week. Keep your job, keep your semester. There's no cohort to fall behind, just your plan. The material is recorded so it fits around your life, but the assignments are not optional
It's not free, and it's not the price of a video course. It's priced like three months of individual supervision with a team on your code every week. The team gives you the exact number and plan on the advisory call, based on your situation
Good. You should. For most of us this is family money, and it deserves a real conversation. Here's what it buys: 250 supervised hours, instructors reviewing your code every week, a real production project on your CV, and a recommendation letter from Sami when you finish. Your family is welcome to join the advisory call and ask anything
If a free program gives you what you need, take it. But ask two honest questions: how many years will you spend finding the right 5% in the right order, and who checks your work? Free gives you information. It doesn't give you seniors assessing your code every week and telling you exactly what's wrong with it
Don't trust a video. Check. SE² is a registered Lebanese company with around 200 active students, and you can read what students and workshop attendees wrote about us on LinkedIn, under their own names, on our testimonials page
The program is taught in Arabic, and the resources are in English
