About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 9 years of experience building and scaling distributed backend systems using Go and Java.

I currently develop quick-commerce backend services at HungerStation (Delivery Hero), focusing on high-volume order, inventory, and fulfillment workflows on Google Cloud Platform.

I specialize in event-driven microservices, distributed systems, REST and gRPC APIs, concurrency, and performance optimization. I have delivered low-latency, high-throughput platforms used by millions of users.

My background spans fintech, logistics, SaaS CRM, enterprise testing, and commerce platforms. I have experience designing cloud-native systems across GCP and AWS.

I am skilled in Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, CI/CD, observability, and database optimization. I use structured logging, distributed tracing, and metrics to improve production reliability.

I also lead technical initiatives, mentor engineers, conduct code reviews, and promote clean architecture and TDD practices. I am seeking senior backend, remote-first engineering opportunities.

Career history

Senior Software Engineer HungerStation (Delivery Hero)

I build and operate quick-commerce backend services in Golang on Google Cloud Platform, supporting high-volume order, inventory, and fulfillment flows across Saudi Arabia.

I design event-driven workflows using Google Cloud Pub/Sub, including idempotent consumers, dead-letter handling, and exactly-once processing for order and stock events. I develop low-latency REST and gRPC services, deploy containerized workloads on GKE and Cloud Run, manage infrastructure with Terraform, and improve observability through structured logging, tracing, and Cloud Monitoring.

Senior Software Engineer IBM Software Labs

I led end-to-end optimization of the IMS Life Cycle Testing platform, reducing total test execution time by 40% across more than 200 virtual machines.

I designed intelligent scheduling and retry mechanisms using real-time CPU, memory, and network metrics, improving test success rates by 30%. I integrated Watsonx.ai predictive analytics and NLP-based log summarization for root-cause analysis, reducing manual debugging effort by 50%, and built concurrent Java services for enterprise workloads.

Team Lead BlackBuck Insights (BBI)

I re-architected the Credit Search and Match Engine using Apache Solr and an improved indexing strategy, reducing complex query latency by 40% across millions of records.

I decomposed a monolithic credit platform into more than six Spring Boot microservices and designed Kafka-based asynchronous workflows to improve throughput. I led code reviews, introduced TDD practices, reduced production defects by 25%, and mentored a team of five engineers.

Senior Software Engineer Citicorp

I developed and maintained core backend services for the Credit Request Platform serving large institutional clients. I also built secure document-management microservices with Spring Boot and REST APIs for sensitive financial data.

I implemented workflow automation and dynamic form generation using Java and Spring Batch, reducing manual data-entry errors by 35%. I improved service reliability and performance through API design, caching, and database optimization.

Software Development Engineer II Sell.do

I developed backend modules for a multi-tenant SaaS CRM platform and onboarded more than 20 high-volume tenants while maintaining sub-second response times at peak load.

I optimized PostgreSQL queries using partial indexes and materialized views, improving dashboard load times by three times. I also implemented a centralized API gateway for authentication and routing and contributed to a cloud-ready microservices architecture.

Software Development Engineer I MasterCard

I built the Account Level Management platform to segment customers into tiers based on transaction behavior and spending patterns.

I processed millions of daily transactions using Java concurrency and Spring Batch. I optimized SQL queries and stored procedures to reduce reporting and analytics runtime by 20% while maintaining data accuracy, security, and compliance in a regulated fintech environment.
