Full-Stack Software Engineer — Cairo, Egypt · working remote
React and Next.js interfaces, Go services behind them, Docker underneath.
I build every layer myself — from the Figma file to the container running on the server.
Most engineers hand off at a boundary — design to frontend, frontend to API, API to deploy. I'd rather hold the whole thread.
Four years of building products that real people use, including the e-commerce platform behind the largest computer hardware retailer in Egypt. I started freelancing in 2022 while studying computer science, and I still keep my own product running: Qarenly, a search engine over product listings pulled from stores across Egypt.

| Layer | Stack | What that means |
|---|---|---|
| L1 · Frontend | TypeScript · React · Next.js · React Native · Tailwind · Ant Design · MUI · ShadCN | Figma in, production interface out. React Query for the data, Zod and React Hook Form for the edges. |
| L2 · Backend | Go · REST APIs · Laravel · PHP · Python | Go services in production — API design, performance, and errors you can actually debug. |
| L3 · Data | PostgreSQL · MongoDB · Redis · ClickHouse · GraphQL | The query and caching layer — where the data gets fetched once instead of five times. |
| L4 · Infra | Docker · Docker Compose · Linux · Git | Containerized so it runs the same on your machine and on the Linux box it deploys to. |
Sigma Computer · Next.js React TailwindCSS · 2024
The e-commerce platform for the largest computer hardware retailer in Egypt — product catalogs, browsing, and online purchasing at retail traffic. A modular React architecture built to be maintained, not rewritten.
Qarenly · my own product
A price-comparison site that pulls product listings from stores across Egypt and puts a search engine on top of them. Client work pays the bills; this one is mine end to end.

Built alone: a paginated content feed, a user-following system, and real-time UI interactions on the web, plus a companion mobile app. I owned the frontend and the backend architecture.
