Actively looking
Highly accomplished Systems Engineer and Tech Lead with over 19 years of extensive background spanning General Management, System Architecture, and Technical Product Delivery. Holding a degree as a Computer Systems Engineer, I specialize in designing and engineering high-load, fault-tolerant infrastructures, resilient backend systems, and decentralized applications.
My core technical expertise includes developing robust service layers and high-performance microservices in Go, constructing secure database architectures (PostgreSQL), and implementing hardware-secured data environments using Confidential Computing (Intel SGX). As a former Web3 founder, I have a proven track record of architecting end-to-end transactional execution layers, building custom state reconcilers, and leading cross-functional engineering teams to deliver secure, production-ready fintech and Web3 solutions.
Based in Dubai, UAE. I am looking for core engineering, technical leadership, or solution delivery roles where I can apply my deep architectural knowledge to protect enterprise infrastructure and solve complex system-level bottlenecks.
