Crafting secure, scalable software and leading high‑impact teams across energy, finance, healthcare and logistics.
I'm a Jeddah‑based Technical Project Manager & Senior Backend Engineer with a track record of delivering high‑performance systems for enterprise clients. My expertise spans backend development, API architecture, cloud infrastructure, DevOps and project management. At Brackets Technology I design scalable backend architectures for energy, banking, logistics and industrial sectors; develop GraphQL and RESTful APIs to improve data efficiency; and lead cloud migration and CI/CD automation using Docker, Kubernetes and AWS. My role also includes coordinating front‑end, UX and system teams and driving security and performance improvements across multiple projects.
Prior to that, I served as a Senior Backend Developer at Otek where I built and optimized backend architectures for more than twenty enterprise applications, delivering secure API solutions for fintech, logistics and e‑commerce platforms, improving database performance by 40 % and automating 40 % of backend processes. Since 2020 I've also worked as a freelance full‑stack developer, designing custom SaaS and fintech solutions, developing scalable RESTful and GraphQL APIs and leading cloud deployments using AWS, DigitalOcean and Kubernetes.
I hold a Bachelor of Software Engineering from Taiz University (GPA 3.7, 2021) and a Full Stack Web Development certification from ROWAD Coding Academy. I'm fluent in Arabic and have professional working proficiency in English.

I follow clean architecture and SOLID principles, keeping controllers slim and business logic encapsulated in services and repositories. My workflows emphasise continuous integration, automated testing and code reviews. When leading a project I encourage collaboration, clear communication and knowledge sharing.
Open‑source allows us to give back to the community. If you use any of my projects, please consider ⭐ starring the repository, submitting issues or contributing improvements. I’m excited to continue building innovative tools and collaborating with developers around the world.
