At Huawei I sit on both sides of the stack. Backend microservices in Java Spring Boot handle business logic and data, while Vue.js frontends give teams a fast, modern interface. Everything runs on Kubernetes in production — and security is built in from day one, not patched in later.

Millions of people across Saudi Arabia shop on Nahdi — one of the region's largest pharmacy chains. I helped build that experience with Next.js and server-side rendering so pages load fast and rank well on Google. Behind every product page, CMS content, search results, and checkout flow had to work seamlessly together in a multinational team.

Jotform powers forms for the entire internet — when something breaks, it affects real people immediately. I debugged production issues across React and Redux codebases at scale. Then I switched hats entirely: joined a cross-functional squad to design and launch a brand-new application from zero to production inside Jotform's own ecosystem.

Org Social began as a university research grant and became a real product on Google Play. Students discover clubs, join events, and chat in real time — I built the full stack solo: React Native app, Node.js backend with live messaging, and even the DevOps pipeline on a Linux VPS with Cloudflare and AWS.

Factory floors don't wait for slow software. At PoloPlus I connected textile machines to the cloud — Python models predicted performance bottlenecks while .NET/C# streamed raw TCP/IP data in real time. I also built a book price comparison tool with Node.js that drove organic traffic through smart SEO.

This is where it all started. Two industrial systems needed to talk to each other securely — I helped build the C# Web API middleware over TCP/IP that made that happen. My first taste of Agile sprints, code reviews, and shipping software as part of a real team.
