👤 About

I'm a Staff Software Engineer based in Amsterdam, specializing in iOS and tvOS development. Over the past decade I've built apps that reached #1 on the US App Store, scaled to millions of users, and shipped across teams at companies like Marktplaats (eBay), BleacherReport, Backbase, and NewStore.

My focus is on building robust, maintainable mobile apps using SwiftUI, The Composable Architecture (TCA), and modular codebases. At Marktplaats I cut iOS build times by 50% with XCRemoteCache and achieved DORA lead times under 8 hours. At NewStore I migrated CI from Buck to Bazel across 20+ brand apps, reducing CI time from 50 minutes to 90 seconds.

Outside of work, I founded SwiftCairo — Egypt's largest iOS developer community with over 1,000 members — and LintSchool, where I've mentored 50+ iOS developers. I also build my own apps: Sajda brings Quran recitations and prayer times to Apple TV, Tally is a scoreboard app for Apple TV, and Tateemi is a free vaccination tracker for Saudi parents following the Ministry of Health schedule.
