About

I'm a full-stack engineer with over 10 years of experience building scalable web applications for startups and enterprises across the MENA region. I specialize in React, Node.js, TypeScript, and AWS cloud infrastructure. My work spans e-commerce platforms, SaaS products, fintech applications, and enterprise dashboards. I take pride in writing clean, maintainable code and delivering projects on time. Whether you need a full-stack product built from scratch, a legacy system modernized, or your AWS infrastructure optimized — I can help you build it right.
