• Lead a 15+ person engineering organization across Dubai HQ and offshore delivery centers, restructured into five squads (backend, mobile, web, enterprise integrations, shared platform services), each led by a team lead, serving the After Sales, Sales and Certified Pre-Owned business units.
• Accountable for Connect, the group's digital service channel: since August 2024, monthly active users have grown from 7K to 20K and monthly bookings from 2,700 to 6,000.
• Introduced AI-assisted development across all five squads, cutting bug-fix time by 30% and feature development time by 20%; authored internal skill libraries encoding the service architecture and integration contracts, with mandatory human code review as the quality gate.
• Re-platformed onto cloud-native microservices provisioned with Terraform, cutting infrastructure and implementation costs by 20%, mostly through multi-tenant services shared across business units.
• Made release discipline the first priority — CI/CD, sprint governance, quality gates, Sentry observability — reaching a 95% on-time release rate and halving feature lead time from ten days to five.
• Migrated two legacy platforms: an Oracle APEX system whose contractor support had ended, rebuilt in-house on Node.js, React and Next.js; and a mobile app on an outdated Flutter version, rebuilt in React Native with a caching layer in front of the Google Places API, cutting its Google API costs by 90%.
• Built the organization's performance framework (KPIs, career ladders, individual growth plans), hired into the squads, and coach the five team leads on delivery, architecture and career progression.

• Owned the engineering function at an early-stage AI startup, reporting to the CEO: architecture, delivery, hiring and technical direction. Led 8 engineers building AI and IoT products on Azure.
• Cut development cycle time by 40%, driven primarily by automating the AI training pipeline and moving to containerized .NET Core and Angular deployments.
• Served as the CEO's technical counterpart, translating business direction into technical strategy and product decisions.
• Introduced structured code review and pair programming, removing single-engineer knowledge dependencies across the codebase.

• Led a 15-engineer distributed team building Medicus AI's health-intelligence platform for European markets; ran 1:1s, performance reviews and career planning across a multi-national organization.
• Re-engineered the .NET Core REST APIs, cutting API response time by 50%, on SQL and NoSQL stores with Docker and Kubernetes; raised unit-test coverage to 90%, the primary driver of the platform's stability gains.
• Delivered the mobile SDKs adopted by labs, clinics and insurers across Europe, built to HL7 and FHIR interoperability standards.
• Implemented Fastlane-based CI/CD for mobile, halving the release cycle and enabling weekly releases.

Joined CloudAppers in 2015; assigned full-time to the Medicus product from January 2017 and continued with Medicus AI after its 2018 spin-out as a standalone HealthTech company.

• Co-developed the Gesundheitscloud SDK for the Hasso Plattner Institute (HPI), a major German health-data platform, and the Medicus iOS application; architected a C++ core SDK for cross-platform consistency.
• Mentored 5 mobile developers on iOS architecture and Apple platform best practices.
• Delivered 4 production iOS applications at CloudAppers, including RTA Dubai and Visit Abu Dhabi 4, both award winners at the 2017 M-Government Service Awards.
