About

The Night Owl Behind the Code

I'm a Software Engineer based in Egypt, passionate about building robust backend systems, AI-powered microservices, and developer tools that make a real impact. Currently at Adappt (Remote, UK), where I architect de-duplication services, RAG-based search tools, and AI matching pipelines.

My work spans LLM-powered search, vector database integration, microservices with RabbitMQ, and full-stack applications with Next.js and Remix.js. I thrive at the intersection of backend engineering and applied AI.

I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science from Mansoura University and love building open-source tools — from semantic code search engines to college exam archives used by 200+ students.

Where I've Perched

Adappt — Remote, UK

Feb 2024 – Present

Software Engineer

Jun 2025 – Present

Fully embedded at Yoono, building and maintaining core microservices for their people intelligence pipeline — including an article matching service, an AI-powered summarisation service, and an internal observability platform adopted as the team's primary tool for diagnosing pipeline regressions.

Junior Software Engineer

May 2024 – Jun 2025

Built an LLM-powered internal RAG search platform using LangChain, with embeddings stored in Chroma and Elasticsearch — which became the foundation for the SentientPro client product. Migrated the Python query module into a production-grade Node.js microservice using TypeScript, Socket.io, and Express.

Article Matching Service: Developed and maintained a core pipeline microservice that matches and ranks articles against individuals using personal and professional profile data, processing up to 10k articles per run with LLM-based relevance evaluation (128k token context window).

AI Summarisation Service: Built and maintained a summarisation microservice that aggregates all pipeline-collected data to generate structured, multi-dimensional reports covering personal and professional aspects of individuals.

Pipeline Observability & Testing Platform: Designed and built an internal Next.js platform cited by Yoono as the most impactful internal tool delivered. Reduced Azure Blob Storage sync time from over 2 hours to minutes in collaboration with the DevOps team.

Time-Series Regression Tracking: Automated syncing and processing of result files up to 300MB, generating time-series visualisations to pinpoint when and where pipeline degradation occurred across deployments.

Article Diff Matching Tool: Built a comparison tool that reruns the article matching pipeline against any deployed environment, surfaces the live GitHub branch, and produces a structured diff between runs for confident validation before promotion.

Full Pipeline Comparison Tool: Developed a persona-level diff feature comparing complete pipeline outputs across branches or environments, giving end-to-end visibility into what improved or degraded between deployments.

Records De-duplication POC: Contributed to a de-duplication service using string similarity algorithms, clustering ML models, and Neo4j graph similarity to identify and link duplicate person records — POC now being productionised.
