What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build production-grade, multi-tenant SaaS backends—owning SDLC, designing fault-tolerant distributed systems, and optimizing latency and reliability at scale. I also want a team where I can mentor others. Open to relocation.

I’m a Backend Software Engineer with 2+ years building production-grade, multi-tenant SaaS platforms on Python/Django and Node.js, deployed across Azure, GCP, and AWS. I’ve designed fault-tolerant distributed systems—async data pipelines, real-time event architectures, and OAuth 2.0/RBAC access control—for workloads at 500+ concurrent users.

At Autonomous Enterprise Management Systems (UK, Remote), I led the backend design of a distributed document management platform serving 500+ active users across isolated tenants, implementing OAuth 2.0 authentication and fine-grained RBAC at the API boundary. I engineered fault-tolerant async pipelines syncing documents between Google Drive and Azure Blob Storage with retry mechanisms, dead-letter handling, and real-time status propagation.

I also built high-throughput observability with a real-time activity logging service capturing millisecond-precision JSON telemetry for downstream AI/ML pipelines and analytics dashboards. I owned end-to-end delivery—requirements gathering, schema design, API development, testing, and frontend integration—while making key technology and trade-off decisions independently.

Previously at Acksession (Beirut, Lebanon), I architected and shipped 5 Django-based ERP modules for 200+ users, eliminating 90% of manual data entry errors and cutting processing time by 60%. I improved latency by introducing Redis caching (400ms to 300ms) and increased reliability in third-party integrations with retry logic and delivery monitoring, reducing authentication failures by 40%.
