What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own backend microservices and event-driven systems, build reliable REST APIs, and collaborate across teams to deliver secure, scalable products with strong engineering growth.

I’m a Software Engineer focused on designing and shipping backend systems that are secure, scalable, and reliable—especially in high-volume environments. At Ejada Systems, I contributed to a distributed microservices architecture (20+ services) for Back-office & Transaction Processing (Al Rajhi Capital – ARC), building RESTful APIs and implementing asynchronous, event-driven communication with Apache Kafka. I also supported comprehensive unit and integration testing with JUnit and helped migrate 4+ million customers with zero downtime.

Before that, I interned at Bibliotheca Alexandrina, where I developed and deployed a full-stack HPC request management system for researchers—using Laravel (PHP) for backend REST APIs and Vue 3 for an interactive frontend. I’m driven by practical impact and continuous learning: I won NASA Space Apps 2023 (“Best Use of Science”) for a React-based web platform, and I’ve built projects like Learnly (MERN with WebRTC and Socket.io) and a real-time online chess app using React and Socket.IO. I enjoy collaborating across business analysts, QA, and DevOps to deliver compliant solutions that perform under real-world constraints.
