At Direct KSA, I own feature delivery for a live travel booking app, from planning through release. I improved hotel booking performance by refining API polling, indexing, and Redux state management, reducing unnecessary API calls by around 30%.

At Cinnova Technologies LLC, I led a team of 10 developers building a cross-platform app for the App Store and Google Play. Restructuring the frontend around Atomic Design cut new UI component development time by around 25%.

Earlier at Cinnova Technologies LLC, I helped consolidate web, iOS, and Android onto a shared codebase, cutting development time close to 40%. I also built smart contracts in Clarity on the Stacks blockchain and worked directly with clients to turn requirements into shipped features.
