Hi there :)
Thanks for visiting my profile!
Would love to give you a glimpse of who I am!...
On the professional side, I am an Expert Global Technical Recruiter with 18+ years of experience hiring top talents for different clients/employers across the world. I'm located in Egypt (GMT+2 timezone) and my employers are mostly SaaS companies headquartered in MENA, primarily KSA, with hiring needs that are rarely restricted to a single location. I've had solid experience with Europe and U.S. based employers as well, and I operate comfortably across time zones!
Although I'd like to position myself as a Technical Recruiter (as it's the most challenging and rewarding), through my experience I've been solidly closing a wide range of non-technical roles too: Customer Success, Business Intelligence, Data Analytics, Accountants, Performance Marketing, Partnerships Specialists, Sales Executives, and more.
My sourcing reach is truly global, not limited to my region at all. I've successfully hired almost every in-demand title in the Software industry across the most sought-after technologies: Backend, Frontend, and Full-Stack Developers at all seniority levels across Java, PHP, .NET, Node.js, Python, Go, Ruby on Rails, Angular, React, Vue, iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native, and more. I've hired DevOps and Site Reliability Engineers, QA and Test Automation Engineers, Data Engineers, Data Analysts, Data Scientists, AI/ML and LLM Engineers, Product Managers and Owners, Business Analysts, Project Managers, Product Architects, UI/UX Designers and Researchers, CTOs, VPs of Engineering, and beyond, essentially every SaaS role across every stack.
I'm currently engaged as a contracted recruitment partner with three leading Saudi-headquartered SaaS companies:
Foodics (Riyadh-based F&B Technology & Payments Platform), ongoing since January 2021, during which Foodics raised a $170M Series C led by Prosus with participation from Sanabil (PIF) and Sequoia Capital India, the largest SaaS Series C in MENA at the time. I notably hired their CTO and helped build the core Engineering team from the ground up.
Unifonic (Riyadh-based Omnichannel Customer Engagement SaaS), ongoing since September 2020, during which they raised a $125M Series B led by SoftBank Vision Fund. Within my first week I delivered a shortlist of 8 highly specialized regional Developers that the internal team had been unable to build over several months, which led directly to a retainer extension.
Gathern (Saudi Arabia's leading P2P Vacation Rental Platform, the first licensed by the Ministry of Tourism), active since November 2025, right after their $72M Series B led by Sanabil (PIF), valuing the company at $266M as it actively prepares for an IPO on Tadawul. Hired 10+ senior Backend and Frontend Engineers in under 2 months.
I don't just source and close. I operate as an embedded hiring partner: redesigning interview pipelines, restructuring job descriptions for clarity and developer appeal, and strengthening employer branding alongside full-cycle sourcing. I report directly to CEOs, CTOs, and Global Heads of Talent Acquisition.
I use all possible paid and unpaid tools to do my job right. For sourcing I rely primarily on LinkedIn Recruiter and/or Sales Navigator. For seamless candidate interaction: Calendly and Zoom. For communication: Slack. For ATS and candidate management: Workable, Freshteam, Recruitee, and Lever, whatever the client runs, I adapt.
On the personal side, I'm a proud Egyptian who started his HR career applying to a recruiting agency as a fresh grad hoping they'd hook him up with one of their clients, and ended up being kept by them instead! The rest is history. I love people, thrive on challenges, and am wired to think, question, and analyze everything. I live by achievements, not routines, driven by resilience and the firm belief that if you haven't failed enough, your chances for real breakthroughs just aren't there yet!
