Professional Summary

Forward deployed engineer in Dubai with 10+ years shipping software inside customer environments. I scope with the client, build production agents, RAG systems, and automation on Claude and OpenAI, then hand over documented systems with guardrails and simple evals so they hold up after I leave. 489 Upwork projects at a 95% Job Success Score — a decade of customer-facing delivery. Earlier I hired and led a 7-person tech team on a teacher marketplace (company raised $2M during that period) and a sports booking platform that hit 10K+ bookings in year one.
