About The Founder & The Project

Yasser Sallam

Senior Software,CNC and R&D Engineer · Full-Stack Architect · Industry 4.0 Pioneer

Available for collaboration

Operating at the critical intersection of heavy industrial manufacturing and advanced software architecture, I specialize in bridging hardware-level mechanical automation with scalable web and cloud systems. With over a decade of hands-on R&D expertise, my work is defined by a singular mission: dismantling the barriers between physical machine kinematics and digital infrastructure.

My technical journey is not confined to a single discipline — it is a continuous loop of translating geometric complexity and manufacturing realities into algorithmic logic, precision code, and optimized high-volume production workflows.

Industrial R&D & Factory Floor Leadership

My foundation is forged in the heart of industrial manufacturing hubs like 10th of Ramadan City. As a Senior CNC Engineer, Process Engineer, and R&D leader, I possess an uncompromising understanding of physical production.

Managing the samples and mockups department — including extensive operational oversight at facilities like Ebdaa Factory — has grounded my software engineering in practical, real-world utility.

Custom Macros & Post-Processors

Engineering specialized scripts and post-processors for SolidWorks, SWOOD, and WoodWOP — turning complex operations into single-click workflows.

→

Algorithmic Parametric Modeling

Participating in the FreeCAD Google Summer of Code (2026), focusing on C++ kernel integration with OpenCASCADE to automate cabinetry and furniture design at the geometry level.

→

High-Volume Generation Tools

Architecting the Closet Designer — a proprietary application that generates manufacturing data, cutting lists, and CNC code directly from parametric inputs.

Our Mission

Unifying Code & Metal

Our mission is to eradicate the friction between computational design and physical shop-floor execution. We architect intelligent, mathematically rigorous pipelines that translate abstract geometric parameters directly into precise CNC spindle motions.

By bridging this gap, we reduce machine setup times by up to 80%, mathematically optimize material nesting yields, and arm industrial manufacturers with modern, full-stack analytics. We do not just write code — we engineer physical throughput.

Our Vision

The Software-Defined Factory

We are engineering a future where the traditional factory floor operates as a unified, software-defined ecosystem. By seamlessly bridging custom CAD macros (SolidWorks, SWOOD) and AutoLISP scripts directly to low-latency, web-based cloud dashboards, we are dismantling isolated data silos.

Our ultimate goal is to lead the global digital transformation of the joinery and mechanical manufacturing sectors, turning heavy machinery into intelligent, connected nodes within the Industry 4.0 matrix.

The Grand Line Project

Intelligent CAD/CAM Web Integrations

The Grand Line Project is an elite R&D initiative focused on digitalizing and automating the wood, sheet metal, and mechanical joinery manufacturing industries.

Traditional factory operations often suffer from fragmented workflows—where engineering drafts are manually translated to CNC G-code, leading to errors, material waste, and massive setup delays. The Grand Line bridges this gap by developing intelligent custom nesting algorithms, automated G-code pipelines, and browser-based production orchestrators.

By integrating custom AutoLISP macros and SWOOD parameters directly with web-based real-time analytics dashboards, we bring complete operational visibility and unprecedented speed to modern manufacturing lines.
