@abdullahomar1
I build Python and Azure financial data systems, from durable pipelines to Open Banking products.
What I'm looking for
At OTCFin, I build Python services and Azure Durable Functions for buy-side financial data workflows. I automated a nine-step trade-data pipeline, replacing manual Postman-triggered processes with resilient hosted orchestration and Power Automate coordination.
I also co-founded Vesta, where I lead engineering for an Open Banking personal-finance app across Flutter, FastAPI, Firebase, and secure token flows. I build products end to end, and my Localyze market-intelligence platform won first place at the University of Jordan’s Innovate to Start competition.
