I build web apps,mostly the parts you don't see.
Say helloFeras Mohamed
Full-stack engineer, backend at heart.
Most of my work happens behind the screen: databases, APIs, and making slow pages fast. I'm happy on the front end too when a project needs it. And I like writing code the next person can read without having to call me.
Right now I'm at Numero eSIM, working across the stack. Before that I built backends at Dukan (the Lafi ordering app) and Tarqeem (Osool and Awaser).
Some of my work. All live, and used by real people every day.

Writing
Coming soon. I'm writing the first few posts now.
About me. The short version.
A little background
I started in 2013 as a freelancer, building websites in PHP. Later I joined small teams where whoever built the API also got the call when it broke. That's how I learned to care about the whole product, not just my part of it.
At Unit One I ended up leading the web team, and learned that a clear plan saves more time than clever code. Outside work I'm building Zikra, a small app for daily athkar and prayer times.
My inbox is open. For freelance work, a full-time role, or just a question.
Have something in mind?
Maybe it's a new product, a slow API, or code that needs a second pair of eyes. Send me a few lines and I'll get back to you within a day or two.
