What I bring to your engineering team.

01

Backend Engineering

REST APIs in C# with ASP.NET Core Web API on .NET 8 / .NET 6 — dependency injection, request validation, and clean contracts that the next engineer can actually pick up.

02

Government & Financial Integration

Secure system-to-system integration with the Ministry of Interior, Public Prosecution, ACA, GAFI, and the Digital Egypt Platform — plus payment gateways and the Egyptian Tax Authority.

03

Data & Modeling

SQL Server, Oracle, and Entity Framework Core in production — relational schema design, entity modeling, and validation rules, including private and restricted networks.

04

Real-Time & Hardware

SignalR / WebSockets for live location tracking, NetTopologySuite for zone-based matching, and backend integration with physical gates, tag readers, barriers, and receipt printers.

How I think about shipping software.

— I.

Boring code is good code.

Surprises belong in birthday parties, not production. The cleverness budget goes into architecture, not the loop.

— II.

If you can't measure it, you didn't fix it.

Latency, throughput, error budget — write the number down before and after. Folklore is not a metric.

— III.

Services are a tax on coordination.

Pay it deliberately. A single well-bounded monolith beats four microservices owned by nobody.

Systems I've built for the real world.

Portrait of Mohamed Bashir Cairo, 2025

A backend engineer who quietly keeps the lights on.

I'm Mohamed, a backend engineer based in Cairo with five years building production systems in C# and .NET for finance, government, and transportation. I care about the boring parts — clean APIs, sensible data models, honest validation — because that's what lets integrations between institutions run quietly.

Currently a Senior Software Engineer at iScore, the Egyptian Credit Bureau, I build the APIs and integration services that connect banks and the Digital Egypt Platform with national authorities — the Ministry of Interior, Public Prosecution, Administrative Control Authority, and GAFI. Before that, I spent four years at TransIT, building 6 production systems associated with the Egyptian Ministry of Transport — from real-time ride-hailing to hardware-integrated toll gates.
