Software Engineer & Co-Founder
aka Romia
I co-founded Zaylon AI, where I built a full-stack platform and multi-agent system integrating 6 e-commerce platforms with event-driven backends and tri-lingual NLP.
Zaylon AI
Production Multi-Tenant Conversational Commerce for MENA
Zaylon turns WhatsApp and Instagram into full sales channels for MENA merchants. Customers browse products, ask questions in their own dialect, and complete purchases without ever leaving the chat. Behind the scenes, a supervisor agent routes each conversation to specialized Sales, Support, or Checkout agents with scoped tool access.

Experience
Software Engineer & Co-Founder
Co-founded and built the full-stack platform: Next.js merchant dashboard, FastAPI backend with PostgreSQL/Redis, Docker deployment, and multi-agent AI system serving MENA merchants across WhatsApp, Instagram, and web.
- ▸Built full-stack platform: Next.js/React merchant dashboard with real-time inbox, analytics, and A/B testing on top of a FastAPI Python backend with Docker containerized deployment
- ▸Integrated 6 e-commerce platforms (Shopify, Salla, WooCommerce, Odoo, YouCan, Zoho) via REST APIs with webhook-driven sync, idempotent operations, and retry logic
- ▸Architected a multi-agent LangGraph system with a supervisor routing conversations to 3 specialized agents (Sales, Support, Checkout), each with scoped access to a subset of 10 AI tools
- ▸Engineered DialectBridge, a tri-lingual NLP pipeline that auto-detects whether a customer is writing in English, Egyptian Arabic, or Franco-Arabic and matches the response dialect accordingly
- ▸Built hybrid product search combining keyword matching, semantic vector similarity, and Reciprocal Rank Fusion scoring, deployed across WhatsApp and Instagram channels
- ▸Designed Redis message accumulation to batch rapid-fire WhatsApp messages into a single coherent turn before invoking the agent, reducing token waste and fragmented responses
- ▸Built multi-tenant architecture with per-merchant encryption, row-level data isolation, and webhook-verified payment processing through Stripe, Paymob, and Fawry
Software Integration Engineering Intern
Ejada
Worked on core banking integration systems, building APIs and event-driven messaging pipelines.
- ▸Built RESTful API endpoints for core banking operations using Spring Boot with query optimization and Redis caching for frequently accessed account data
- ▸Configured Apache Kafka producers and consumers for asynchronous transaction processing, decoupling payment events from the main request lifecycle
- ▸Implemented API gateway security with OAuth2 authentication, rate limiting, and request validation using WSO2 API Manager
AI Coding Expert
Freelance · Independent Contractor
Evaluated and improved LLM-generated code across multiple platforms, contributing to RLHF training data for frontier AI models.
- ▸Evaluated LLM-generated coding solutions across Python, backend systems, and algorithmic problems for RLHF data pipelines used to train frontier AI models
- ▸Developed quality rubrics and prompting strategies for code generation, measuring correctness, efficiency, style adherence, and edge case handling
- ▸Reviewed and ranked thousands of code samples, providing detailed feedback on reasoning chains, code structure, and technical accuracy
Automotive Cybersecurity Intern
Swift-ACT
Contributed to automotive cybersecurity research, building security scenario catalogs and running attack simulations in vehicle simulation environments.
- ▸Built comprehensive security scenario catalogs documenting threat models, attack vectors, and mitigation strategies for CAN bus and ECU communication systems following automotive cybersecurity standards
- ▸Designed and executed cybersecurity test scenarios in Dyna4 and CARLA simulation environments, simulating real-world attack conditions on vehicle systems including spoofing, replay attacks, and denial-of-service on CAN networks
- ▸Used Vector CANoe for CAN bus simulation and analysis, monitoring message traffic, injecting fault conditions, and validating ECU response behavior under adversarial inputs
- ▸Conducted fuzz testing on Automotive Emergency Braking (AEB) components, identifying edge cases in sensor fusion timing and brake actuation logic under corrupted input data

About Romia
I co-founded Zaylon AI and built a full-stack platform with multi-agent AI, event-driven backends, and REST API integrations across 6 e-commerce platforms and 3 languages. I work the full stack: React and Next.js on the frontend, FastAPI and Spring Boot on the backend, and multi-agent LangGraph architectures for the AI layer. Currently finishing my B.Sc. in Computer and Communications Engineering at Alexandria University (3.73 GPA, AI Concentration). I speak English, Arabic, German, and Spanish. Outside engineering, I play guitar.
