Top Skills
I don't just write code — I build companies.
After 15+ years in the trenches as an engineer and tech lead, I took the leap to found my own products targeting the Arab market — because I saw a real gap: world-class AI tools that don't speak Arabic, and Arabic tools that don't meet world-class standards.
