Hi there! I'm Mohamad,
A Software Engineer at Zebracat AI.

I design and ship scalable, AI-driven backend systems with a focus on distributed architectures, real-time pipelines, and high-throughput services. My toolkit spans Python (Django, FastAPI) and Node.js (TypeScript), with deep experience across PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Qdrant, Celery, RabbitMQ, Kubernetes, and AWS. I currently lead backend work for AI video generation at Zebracat AI.

About Me

I'm a software engineer with 5+ years of experience designing and shipping production systems for AI-driven products. My focus is building distributed, event-driven architectures: microservices that communicate over gRPC and message queues, real-time WebSocket APIs, vector-search pipelines for ML retrieval, and observability-first deployments on Kubernetes.

At Zebracat AI I lead backend services for AI video generation — the systems behind asset processing, generation orchestration, and collaborative editing. I work across Python and TypeScript, ship on AWS with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, and Qdrant, and instrument everything with Sentry, Elastic APM, Prometheus, and Grafana.

Outside work I contribute to open-source on GitHub and maintain a few Telegram bots that have served 50k+ users. I care about clean code, testability, and shipping things that stay up.
