About

From frontend engineering to full-stack and applied AI.

I began my career building websites and frontend experiences before progressing into React, enterprise e-commerce and full-stack product engineering.

Over the past 10+ years, I have contributed to platforms across Bamboo Card, Apparel Group, BFL Group and Transguard, working on digital gifting, beauty commerce, luxury retail and operational systems.

Today, I combine that engineering foundation with practical AI technologies to build knowledge assistants, workflow automation, agent-based tools and AI-enabled enterprise applications.

I am interested in Senior Software Engineer, Senior Full-Stack Engineer and applied AI product roles in the UAE.
