About Me

For over 25 years, I've been building, scaling, and leading technology—from founding and growing ISP and software ventures in Iran to serving as CTO, IT Manager, and Head of Development for international companies across the USA and beyond. My career spans enterprise software architecture, cloud infrastructure, mobile and web platforms, network engineering, and strategic technology leadership, with a consistent focus on transforming complex business challenges into scalable, high-performance solutions.

I combine deep technical expertise across the full stack—from low-level systems, networking, and DevOps to modern SaaS platforms, Flutter mobile apps, and enterprise architecture—with executive leadership in team building, product strategy, and operational excellence. Whether mentoring developers, architecting mission-critical systems, or advising organizations on innovation and growth, I'm driven by clean architecture, strategic execution, and building technology that creates measurable impact. My journey reflects a rare blend of founder mindset, academic depth, and hands-on engineering experience across continents.
