Damascus,
UTC+3, same time as Riyadh
Senior software engineer, full stack and frontend. I build real-time platforms for airports, government and hotels across the Gulf, working remotely from Damascus.
Open to remote frontend and full-stack roles
Four platforms I built or led, all in production and used every day by operations teams, managers and guests.
The guest app and the operations dashboard hotels run on, and the generic layer underneath.
TDH runs the digital side of a hotel stay for hotels in seven countries. Guests scan a QR code to order, book or chat without installing an app, and staff run housekeeping, orders, training and reports from one dashboard.
Real-time chat between guests and the hotel over Socket.IO, with voice notes, files and reply previews. The Servy assistant chat, and in-stay rentals with live price quotes.
A drag-and-drop housekeeping planner, live orders over Pusher, staff training and checklists, and morning-briefing, complaints and meter-reading reports. Prompt suggestions for OptemAi, TDH’s AI operations agent.
I designed the dashboard’s foundation so most screens are configured instead of hand-built: one HTTP and CRUD layer, tables driven by React Context, and forms generated from a schema. A new module is now a configuration plus its own business rules.
A marketplace that lets hotels sell outside services to their guests.
Restaurants, car rental, spas, pharmacies, tour desks and more sign up, set up their services and take orders from hotel guests, with revenue and statements in one place.
Smaller images on the ServRoom dashboard. Pages were slow because the design exports were 4,000-pixel PNGs hidden inside SVG files. I converted them to right-sized images and deleted 11 MB of unused files. Image sources went from 38.4 MB to 2.26 MB, and a 5.8 MB illustration now ships as 29 KB.
I also set up ServRoom’s test suite with Vitest and React Testing Library and wrote all 38 of its test files.
Every bus, route and station on one live map.
A fleet and logistics platform used across several Saudi airports. Dispatchers follow buses between terminals and stations as they move, and cameras count passengers boarding and leaving.
From a strategy to tracked work, with AI drafting the plan.
A performance-management platform for a government. Strategic objectives break down into initiatives, projects and tasks, each with KPIs that roll up every quarter.
One control room for a whole portfolio of gaming apps.
A hub that runs several mobile gaming apps at once. Players order rewards and gift codes; each app’s managers work in their own panel under one master admin, with users in many countries.
Seven years, most of them remote, for teams in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the UK.
