01 / ABOUT

Not just code.
Systems that survive real-world complexity.

I graduated in May 2024 with a degree in Informatics Engineering — Information Technology from the Arab Private University.

My work sits at the intersection of software engineering and business operations. I enjoy translating messy real-world processes—attendance rules, payroll policies, shifts, permissions, reports, reminders, competitions, rewards—into structured backend systems.

A
Business-first thinking

I model the workflow before writing the endpoint.

B
Backend ownership

From schema and services to permissions and edge cases.

C
Operational systems

HR, payroll, attendance, alerts, projects, reporting.

D
Maintainable architecture

Clear responsibilities, predictable flow, scalable logic.
