About
I sit with the people doing the work, find what slows them down, then build and ship the fix.
I joined MHG Trading in late 2020 as a graphic designer and moved into front-end and web development in 2021, building corporate websites in four languages. From 2022 I built customer portals and payments as a full-stack developer. From December 2024 I led the group's digital transformation, and since January 2026 I have been its forward deployed engineer, still writing the code in Next.js, TypeScript and Python.
Today that means an enterprise CRM used in 60+ branches, an internal AI platform for 200+ staff that cut response times 40%, a hiring product, and an investor relations site whose assistant answers in Arabic and English. I am based in Riyadh.
