About
I am an experienced developer and problem solver with 10+ years across fintech, mobility, e-commerce, government, and education — currently leading architecture at Lynk. I am especially interested in empowering teams and products with AI, and I share what I learn on Medium .
My journey spans finance, e-commerce, mobility, education, and government — from network signal analysis and government archiving in Egypt to financial reporting for Johnson & Johnson, notification systems for TOTAL, and the Tazhub public-transport ticketing platform.
At Carefer I led a platform processing 50K+ monthly car-maintenance orders across five applications and scaled the team from 3 to 20+ engineers. At Lynk I architect multi-ledger fintech with ZATCA compliance and commodity exchange integrations.
Microverse sharpened remote collaboration and full-stack fundamentals. Today I bridge business objectives and technical implementation — plus AI-augmented SDLC: hooks that enforce tickets before code, automated review, and explicit merge approval.
