العربية

I'm a senior software engineer in Riyadh. I build and run production systems across web, mobile and distributed backends: .NET microservices, Arabic-first Next.js products and Flutter apps.

At Ebana I grew from a front-end role into full-stack ownership of the company's main web application, and I lead technical meetings with enterprise clients, including banks. As a part-time senior engineer and technology consultant at IES, I led the architecture of an 8-service .NET 10 backend and shipped 3 products across 6 codebases in about 10 weeks.

I work AI-natively: Claude Code, MCP servers and multi-agent workflows are part of how I design, build and review software every day. The Links section collects the news from my field that I think is worth remembering.
