I build systems that scale, and lead the teams that ship them.
Since 2017 I have been turning strained, expensive software into fast, reliable, cost-efficient systems. Deep engineering, an MBA, and a habit of tying every technical decision back to the business.
An engineer who reads the balance sheet, and a manager who still reads the code.
Since 2017 I've worked at the intersection of engineering and business: leading backend teams, modernizing legacy systems, and making sure the technology actually moves the numbers it's supposed to move.
My work runs from hands-on architecture (microservices, multi-cloud, performance) to the parts nobody sees on a resume: coaching engineers, aligning teams, and turning vague business goals into systems that ship. The MBA wasn't a detour; it's why I can sit in either room and be useful.
I also speak regularly at AWS Community Days, GDG DevFests and universities across Lebanon, on scalable systems, the cloud, and how large AI models actually work. See where I've spoken →
Numbers only mean something with the story behind them.
Platforms I've worked on: the challenge each one faced, what I changed, and the measurable result.

Where teams bring me in.
Whether it's a full-time seat or a focused engagement, this is the work I do best.
System modernization
Breaking monoliths into microservices, refactoring legacy code, and running cloud migrations that don't take the business offline.
Cost & performance
Finding the six-figure waste in your cloud bill and the seconds hiding in your APIs, then engineering both of them out.
Engineering leadership
Building and coaching backend teams, setting architecture direction, and translating business goals into what actually gets shipped.
