About

Full-Stack Product Engineer · AI-Powered Systems

Osama Jenana

Full-stack engineer who takes products from an empty repository to a running production system — interface, API, database, mobile client and the server it all runs on. 7 years in production and 40+ shipped systems across commerce, healthcare, charity operations and messaging automation, most of them Arabic-first and RTL. Deep experience with the integrations other people avoid: Meta WhatsApp Cloud API, Gulf payment rails, and ERP synchronisation. Recent work centres on AI-powered automation — provider-agnostic assistant layers, real-time voice translation, and conversational commerce.

Where I focus

  • Web Systems

    Multi-tenant platforms, admin panels and real-time dashboards on Laravel, Vue and Next.js — the kind with 70+ models and money moving through them.

  • AI & Automation

    Provider-agnostic AI layers, conversational assistants across channels, real-time voice translation, and scraping pipelines that beat rate limits by design.

  • Infra & Integrations

    Docker, nginx, Redis queues and WebSockets on bare VPS boxes — plus the integrations nobody volunteers for: payment rails, ERPs and Meta Cloud API.

Experience

  1. 2022 — Present

    Full-Stack Developer

    Muscat Apps

    • Own products end to end: domain modelling, Laravel and Vue implementation, mobile APIs, server provisioning and ongoing operation.
    • Built the WhatsApp-native commerce platform: a stateful flow engine, an HMAC-signed Node gateway for Meta protocol handling, and role-separated dashboards backed by 53 test files.
    • Delivered integrations across payment rails (Thawani, JawwalPay, Apple Pay) and ERP systems (Odoo, SmartLife), including invoice delivery over WhatsApp.
    • Maintain long-lived platforms in production — one charity system has passed 600 commits under continuous ownership.

    Backend Developer

    Muscat Apps

    • Built Laravel backends and REST APIs for multi-vendor marketplaces and e-commerce platforms serving web and mobile clients.

    Backend Developer — Freelance

    Independent
