My Journey

Building Systems That Actually Work

I build backend systems that work in real production - not just in theory.

Over the past 5+ years, I’ve worked across fintech, healthcare, and SaaS, building and improving systems where performance and reliability actually matter.

I mainly work with Node.js and NestJS, focusing on clean architecture, database performance, and designing services that scale without becoming hard to manage. I care about the details that make systems stable in production — proper monitoring, solid CI/CD, and predictable deployments., proper monitoring, and production-grade deployment strategies.

I also pay close attention to business impact. Whether it’s reducing infrastructure cost, improving performance, or simplifying workflows, I aim to build systems that make a real difference, not just “work”..

Multi-tenant appointment booking backend serving barbershops, gyms, and consultants — built from scratch on NestJS + PostgreSQL. I owned the architecture end-to-end.

Built the backend from scratch for a multi-tenant booking platform on NestJS and PostgreSQL — supporting barbershops, gyms, and consultants from a single codebase. Owned the schema design, service architecture, and the full API layer

Integrated Kashier (Egyptian payment gateway) end-to-end: webhook ingestion, idempotent transaction validation, and reconciliation logic. Shipping payments is always messier than the docs make it look

Payment infrastructure work — WooCommerce plugins used by thousands of merchants, a URL shortener that cut SMS costs by 25%, and the documentation that made the whole thing easier to integrate.

Maintained WooCommerce payment plugins serving thousands of active merchants — a lot of careful bug-fixing to keep things working across the block editor and HPOS without breaking existing integrations

Built a URL shortener service that ended up saving ~25% on SMS costs platform-wide. Sounds like a small project, but when SMS volume is high the savings are real

Backend performance work on an edtech platform — cut a 3-minute cronjob to 45 seconds, dropped average query time by 40%, and built the student account merge tool nobody wanted to touch.

Optimized a complex cronjob that was running for 3 minutes in production. Profiled it, rewrote the bottleneck, got it to 45 seconds. The kind of fix that feels obvious in hindsight

Executed database query optimizations across several high-traffic endpoints — 40% reduction in average query time, which showed up directly in user-facing response times

Led the React → Next.js migration for a prompt management platform. Proper SSR, cleaned up the routing mess, and organic traffic went up 50% after the SEO improvements landed.

Led the full migration from React SPA to Next.js — the old architecture had client-side-only rendering which was killing SEO and making the initial load sluggish

Implemented SSR and SSG where appropriate, keeping client-side hydration only where interactivity required it. The result was faster TTFBs and proper page indexing

Built a patient management platform from scratch — schema design, API, AWS infrastructure, ICD-10 medical code engine, real-time chat, and payment integration. Three years of real healthcare system engineering.

Built a comprehensive patient management system from the ground up — defined the data model, designed the API layer, and set up the cloud infrastructure for a healthcare platform handling sensitive medical data

Designed and implemented an ICD-10 medical code parsing engine that transformed complex diagnostic codes into searchable, interactive cards. Reduced clinical data lookup time for healthcare providers meaningfully
