Selected work

A few projects where I owned the frontend end-to-end — from architecture and performance to the last interaction detail.

01
Nzmly
Live

Nzmly

Implemented NestJS APIs in Next.js apps. Created new components using Chakra UI & TailwindCSS. Re-designed a number of modules from Figma UI/UX designs.

02
hookli
Live

hookli

hookli is a React hooks library, written in TypeScript and ready to ship. It gives you a small, dependency-free set of the hooks you reach for in almost every project — debounce, `localStorage` wrappers, outside-click listeners, and the rest — so you stop rewriting the same utilities for the hundredth time.

03
Toast System
Live

Toast System

A lightweight React toast/notification library focused on a simple API and minimal boilerplate.

03/Approach

How I work

A few principles I hold to, on every team and codebase.

01

Performance is a feature

Core Web Vitals are a budget, not an afterthought. I measure first, set budgets, and protect them — so the fast path stays fast as the product grows.

02

Accessible by default

Keyboard paths, screen-reader semantics, reduced motion, and contrast are requirements. The interface should work for everyone, on day one.

03

Systems over one-offs

Tokens, primitives, and clear composition. The goal is that the tenth screen costs less to build than the first — and stays consistent without policing.

04

Ship, then measure

Small, reversible changes behind data. I optimize for outcomes over output, and I'd rather learn from real usage than argue in the abstract.

Where I've worked

What people say

Feedback from colleagues and collaborators.

  • Saif is one of the most professional, elegant, and super motivated software engineers I've worked with. besides his passion for design and new technologies, his personal and communication skills are amazing.
    Abdelrahman FekriSenior Software Engineer at Dyne
  • I've known Saif for 4 years through our time together at HIMIT, and I can say with confidence that he's one of the most talented and dedicated engineers I've come across. We collaborated on our graduation project — a Phishing URL and SMS Spam Detection system — where Saif owned the entire backend and frontend infrastructure. While I handled the ML side, Saif built a robust async FastAPI backend with MongoDB integration and a clean frontend on top of it. Watching him work, you could tell this wasn't someone just getting things to work — he genuinely cares about doing things right. What sets Saif apart isn't just his technical skill, it's his ability to take ownership. He doesn't wait to be told what to do next. He sees the problem, figures it out, and delivers. Any team that gets Saif is lucky to have him. I'd work with him again without hesitation.
