About Me

Fady Yassa

Backend Specialist

Dubai, UAE

I am a Computer Engineering graduate and Senior Software Engineer with deep expertise in backend development, specializing in FastAPI and Node.js/NestJS.

I focus on designing scalable architectures, building high-performance APIs, and delivering robust backend services that power real-world applications. I have successfully deployed production-ready applications currently live on the Play Store and App Store, built using React Native.

Alongside backend systems, I bring hands-on experience in cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and AWS services (such as Lambda, ECS, S3, CloudFront, and Secrets Manager), ensuring end-to-end delivery of impactful solutions. I am now seeking a senior-level opportunity where I can leverage my backend expertise, cloud knowledge, and leadership skills to deliver cutting-edge products at scale.
