Software Engineer and Tech Lead
Abdelrahman Ismail
Software engineering first. AI used thoughtfully to do better work, faster.
I have an engineering degree and more than 12 years of experience building technology for e-commerce and airports at scale. I use AI as part of my workflow to move faster, while relying on the engineering judgment that comes from doing the work for years. I share what holds up in practice through content, teaching, and hands-on work with teams.
