## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm seeking a remote Frontend or Product Engineer role with a scaling tech startup or NGO in the global or GCC market, where I can bring startup-builder ownership to product performance and ROI.
```

## About

```text
I’m a frontend-focused Software Engineer with hands-on experience building React and Vite applications, with a strong interest in product engineering, web performance, accessibility, and scalable frontend architecture.

My experience includes building a multi-tenant restaurant SaaS as a Founder & Sole Developer, with branch-specific configurations, geo-based pricing, Arabic/English RTL support, responsive UI, and automated testing. I also built a full-stack authentication system during my frontend development internship using React, TypeScript, Node.js, Express, JWT, Google OAuth, and MongoDB.

I’m particularly interested in solving frontend performance and architecture problems. In a dedicated performance-focused project, I reduced bundle size by 94%, from 159KB to 9KB, while achieving Lighthouse scores of 96–100 across key categories. I also work with code splitting, reusable React components, accessibility standards, SEO, testing, and AI-assisted development workflows.

I’m looking for opportunities where I can continue growing as a Software Engineer while contributing to high-quality frontend products and learning from experienced engineering teams.
