About

I’m a Senior Backend Engineer specializing in building and scaling high-traffic eCommerce platforms using Adobe Commerce (Magento 2). I design robust backend architectures, enable headless commerce, and implement event-driven integrations to support enterprise storefronts at scale.

I’ve delivered GCC/Middle East platforms (UAE, KSA, Bahrain, Oman) with EN/AR stores, multi-currency, VAT compliance, and peak-traffic resilience for Ramadan, Eid, and Black Friday. I collaborate closely with clients and stakeholders, including onsite delivery in Riyadh, to translate complex requirements into scalable technical solutions.
