At Jeeny, I modernized the ride-hailing app’s legacy Objective-C/MVC codebase into Swift, MVVM, and modular architecture. The work cut feature build times by ~30% and lifted crash-free users above 99.5%.

I lead a cross-functional squad across iOS, Android, Backend, and QA for a platform handling ~1M ride requests a day across Saudi Arabia and Jordan. I also grew and mentored Jeeny’s iOS engineering discipline from 5 to 15 developers.

At Dubizzle Labs (formerly EMPG Labs), I migrated Zameen.com and Bayut.com from Objective-C/MVC to Swift and VIP Clean Architecture, cutting incremental build time by ~30%. I also led the UI/UX redesign of both apps, contributing to higher App Store ratings and user engagement.

Earlier, at ILSA Interactive, I delivered four iOS applications from concept to App Store launch for Middle East clients. I’m now expanding into backend development with Java and Spring Boot, and into applied AI, including Generative AI and Agentic AI.
