Based in Dubai, UAE 🇦🇪
I build high-throughput, distributed backend systems for the kind of products where correctness is non-negotiable: crypto exchanges, payments rails, and DeFi infrastructure. My work spans the on-chain and off-chain worlds — from EVM smart contracts to real-time analytics pipelines moving millions of events.
