Summary
As a Senior Software Engineer at Paymob, I use my Python expertise to develop and maintain scalable and
reliable backend systems for a leading Fin Tech platform that enables digital payments and financial inclusion
across the Middle East and Africa.
With a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Punjab University College of Information Technology, I have
a strong foundation in technical design, domain-driven design, microservices, and other software engineering
principles and practices. I also have experience in mobile application development, Flutter, Python, Django, and
Firebase, which I acquired from my previous roles at CoinBeam and Decklaration, where I worked on innovative
and user-friendly solutions for cryptocurrency and presentation software.
I am passionate about learning new technologies and frameworks, and I constantly seek to improve my skills
and knowledge through online courses and certifications. I have completed two Udemy courses on Golang,
Postgres, Kubernetes, and gRPC, which have enhanced my backend development skills and prepared me for the
challenges and opportunities in the Fin Tech industry.
I enjoy working with a diverse and collaborative team of engineers, designers, and product managers, and I
always strive to deliver high-quality and secure code that meets the needs and expectations of the clients and
users. I am motivated by the vision and mission of Paymob, and I am proud to be part of a company that is making
a positive impact on the lives and livelihoods of millions of people.
