What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable backend and data systems, contribute through collaborative engineering practices, and continue growing in software development and technical mentorship.

I've built secure backend APIs at Eskalate and developed data-driven systems for unstructured Telegram content. I focus on scalable services, reliable data workflows, and clean integration within team-maintained codebases.

At Africa to Silicon Valley, I teach competitive programming, data structures, algorithms, and software development. I've mentored more than 20 students at a time from over 10 African countries through rigorous engineering-focused programs.

My projects include a FastAPI analytics API and ELT pipeline using PostgreSQL, dbt, Dagster, and YOLOv8 to turn Telegram messages and images into actionable insights. I also built a multi-tenant B2B procurement platform with Golang, React, TypeScript, Docker, role-based access control, and PostgreSQL data-integrity safeguards.

I'm a Software Engineering student and A2SV alumnus who has solved over 1,000 competitive programming problems. I placed second nationally in the 2025 ICPC qualifiers, helping qualify for ACPC in Egypt.
