Overview

Currently at Quarry Works, where I work on growth engineering. Moved 69% of growth traffic off a legacy monolith without a customer-facing incident. Built the experimentation framework 21 product teams use to ship changes safely. Before that: Swvl and Siemens. Most at home with Node.js and analytics. Home cook with strong opinions about biryani.
