At miniOrange, I've built and operated enterprise MFA and SSO infrastructure for global customers across VPNs, desktops, and identity platforms. I launched a multi-tenant RADIUS platform that supported a $200K license conversion and delivered a custom IdP-initiated MFA flow for the National Bank of Bahrain, securing a $33K renewal.

I've co-built an agentic AI adaptive-MFA system that evaluates user behavior in real time and reduced unnecessary MFA challenges by about 60%. I also reduced bulk-operation load and latency by 78%, cut Redis production latency from roughly 200 ms to 2 ms, and designed zero-downtime PostgreSQL, Redis, and RabbitMQ deployments for more than 36 enterprise customers.

I enjoy solving production authentication and infrastructure problems end to end, from SAML and OAuth integrations to incident response, disaster recovery, and customer deployments. I've led 30+ on-premise and DMZ deployments with a 97% first-pass success rate while meeting every SLA commitment.
