Portfolio

Video Management

I researched, designed, and built a SharePoint-based, FFmpeg-powered application to handle media—audio and video—storage and distribution and live streaming capabilities. It is optimized for use within an air-gapped environment. I worked on the project by myself, from inception to delivery.

Dropshipping Integration

After researching, I developed a Symfony-based RESTful API that synchronizes products and orders with scheduled AWS Lambda. It also handles integration with various logistics services for over one thousand eCommerce sites.

Gym Management Software

I developed gym management software that handled memberships with progress tracking, training programs, classes, instructor profiles, and a video library. I built it on top of Liferay and collaborated with a designer for the UI/UX part. The system was integrated with LDAP and a card-reader third-party software to handle access.

Knowledge Base

I developed a system for a knowledge base and chatbot to assist the helpdesk department for a government agency in Abu Dhabi. I conducted the research, identified the technologies to be used, and acted as the lead developer on the project.
