What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead frontend architecture and teams building scalable AI-driven, real-time analytics/data platforms—partnering with product and design to modernize systems, improve performance, and deliver reliable high-availability user experiences.

I’m a Lead Frontend Engineer and PMP® with 11+ years of experience building large-scale, AI-driven, data-intensive platforms for UAE government and enterprise clients. I currently lead frontend architecture and a team at Presight (G42), delivering real-time analytics for millions of records.

I specialize in modernizing legacy applications into modern Angular/React stacks, scaling frontend systems for high-availability environments, and using AI-assisted development workflows to accelerate delivery. I focus on performance optimization so complex UIs can render with sub-second responsiveness.

Across my roles, I’ve owned end-to-end delivery—from feature discovery and technical design through deployment—while partnering closely with designers and product managers on UI/UX decisions before engineering begins. I act as the technical bridge between business stakeholders and engineering teams, translating AI and data requirements into sprint-ready solutions.

I’ve led major migrations (e.g., modular Angular architecture from standalone legacy React apps), established frontend engineering standards (code reviews, component architecture guidelines, and CI/CD configurations), and mentored engineers through measurable growth. My work spans enterprise frontends, reliable government-grade systems, and high-traffic platform components.
