03 · Experience
Shipping in production since 2022, from environmental data tooling to enterprise AI.
Designing the Signals intelligence pipeline (scraping, enrichment, and event detection) and building agent-based workflows that turn client-relevant events into tailored outreach. Integrated Microsoft Copilot and internal LLMs; shipped automated insight generation with TypeScript, REST APIs, and vector search.
Built a recommendation feature that lifted referral conversions by 35%, designed backend services in Node.js and PostgreSQL, and wrote REST APIs and docs that cut client integration time in half.
Built Python data-processing tools for environmental data (+20% reporting efficiency) and delivered GIS-enabled features 15% ahead of schedule.
04 · About
I'm a software engineer in Toronto with a strong foundation in full-stack development, AI/ML pipelines, and cloud architecture. I specialize in intelligent systems that scale, and clean, maintainable code that solves real problems.
Right now: shipping event-detection models into the Signals pipeline at Postilize, exploring agent-orchestration patterns (LangGraph-style flows over REST + vector search), re-reading "Designing Data-Intensive Applications," and building a TypeScript CLI for batching model evals on the side. I speak English and Arabic.
