What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, Agile role building scalable Drupal/PHP backends and APIs, driving performance optimizations, working across frontend/backend teams, and delivering secure solutions with opportunities for technical growth.

I am a results-oriented Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience specializing in Drupal development and PHP-based middleware solutions. I deliver scalable web applications, REST APIs, and secure backend systems across production environments.

I have contributed to projects including a middleware platform for Qatar Museums, the QSL football platform (https://qsl.qa), and healthcare solutions like Ebloodbanking, implementing Azure AD access token validation, dynamic REST API generation, RBAC, batch processing, and multilingual mobile API integrations.

My technical toolkit spans Drupal (8–11), PHP (5 & 7), CodeIgniter, MySQL, REST API development, custom module creation, Drupal migrations, Git, Jira, and Agile/Scrum-driven SDLC practices. I focus on performance optimization, automated content sync (queues/cron), and secure payment and booking integrations.

I collaborate closely with frontend, backend, and stakeholder teams to translate requirements into robust technical solutions. I am motivated to drive innovation, improve performance, and contribute to teams building reliable web and mobile experiences.
