Muhammad Arab

Software Engineer · Full-Stack Product & Backend

Four years in, delivering whole products: the mobile app of a two-sided marketplace, built solo from first scaffold to both app stores in under four months, the order-processing engine at the core of an 11-module SaaS platform, and a live geo-search product serving 27,000+ verified locations. Comfortable with payments, multi-tenant security, and zero-downtime migrations.

Experience

Bee Logical Software

Sep 2023 – Present

Software Developer · Remote, clients in the US and EU

Three years, three client products, growing ownership: platform architecture for Saralux M360, a cross-company design system for Irys Cloud, then a marketplace app shipped solo. Along the way, a mentor to junior developers.

Doggo · Two-sided dog-care marketplace for the EU market

May 2026 – Present

Sole developer on the React Native app: 60 screens covering both the consumer and provider sides, scaffold to App Store and Play Store submission in three and a half months.

  • Built the payments experience on the app side of Stripe Connect: card collection, provider onboarding with deep-link returns, and the consumer and provider flows behind payouts and commission accounting.
  • Built the React admin portal, with provider verification, trust scoring, and GDPR account deletion. Contributed targeted endpoints and fixes to the Node and PostgreSQL API (127 endpoints across 35 tables), which was owned by a backend teammate.
  • Handled release engineering solo: EAS build profiles, store assets, a version-gate endpoint, and the client handover runbook. Closed 66 QA defects across the three surfaces.

Saralux M360 · 11-module association-management SaaS

Sep 2023 – Present

Architected the platform's order-processing engine, which replaced the legacy web-order flow and now handles every transaction. Orders break into steps and tasks, retry on failure, separate critical from non-critical errors, and can be bulk-reprocessed when a batch goes bad.

  • Led the cutover to that architecture: feature toggles per module let us move ten product modules one at a time instead of in a single risky release.
  • Delivered 495 work items and 446 merged pull requests over 70 sprints at a 96% completion rate. Top four of twenty-plus contributors on both flagship repos.
  • Moved application submission to asynchronous processing, previously the slowest action on the platform. Also fixed a multi-tenant bug that exposed customer IDs.

Irys Cloud · Commercial insurance agency-management platform

Nov 2025 – May 2026

Started the v2 track of the company's npm-published UI library, used by around thirty engineers across four companies.

  • Built the first v2 components, a shared Tailwind token preset, and a Rollup build with its own release pipeline.
  • Built a component showcase that generates live docs and interactive prop controls straight from typed component metadata.
  • Wrote reusable hooks that enforce business rules across opportunity and case workflows, such as commission splits having to total either 0% or 100%.

  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind CSS

Aonia Tech (MadScientist)

Dec 2022 – Sep 2023

Full-Stack Developer Intern · Remote

  • Second by commit count across both frontends of a science and technology social platform, and the only engineer who worked on both the React v1 product and the Angular 16 rewrite.
  • Added Google OAuth sign-in across the React client and the Node and MySQL backend, then fixed the password-reset flow for accounts that had never set a password.
  • Added comment pagination and a per-viewer like-status join in the model layer to cut client round trips. Removed password fields that were leaking into API responses.

Masjidly

Feb 2024 – Present

Location-based masjid discovery platform

  • 27 months solo
  • 663 commits
  • 31 versioned endpoints
  • 12 tables

Designed, built, and run solo for 27 months: a pnpm monorepo on Next.js 15 and React 19, live in production with real users.

  • Built a resumable ingestion pipeline over OpenStreetMap and Google Places. It seeded 27,714 verified locations across 930 grid cells in 65 minutes with no errors, and caught 623 duplicates through a tiered PostGIS and trigram matching cascade.
  • Designed the PostgreSQL schema with 9 triggers and 6 stored functions, including a faceted geo-search that resolves nine optional parameters in one query.
  • Centralized routing so auth gating and robots.txt both derive from route groups. Locked down the deployment with a strict content-security policy and versioned service-worker caching, and reworked OAuth account-linking so two identities cannot be silently merged.

Agentic Delivery Pipeline

2026

Spec-driven development process for LLM coding agents

  • 5 stages
  • 108 database tests
  • 23 self-corrections

A five-stage pipeline (planning, data layer, UI, review, retrospective) built around a written spec as the single source of truth, with acceptance criteria on every task.

  • Review stages run migrations, isolation tests, typechecks, and secret scans before auditing the build against each acceptance criterion.
  • Retrospectives feed what went wrong back into the pipeline's own instruction files: 23 changes so far.
  • Ran it end to end on EveryCent, a personal finance tracker on Supabase. Shipped with 108 database tests, 21 of them cross-tenant RLS isolation probes covering every tenant-scoped table.

About

I started in frontend, turning Figma files into pixel-perfect React. The backend pulled me in when I noticed the interesting problems lived below the interface: how an order survives a failed payment step, how a query stays fast at the hundred-thousandth row, how two tenants stay invisible to each other.

These days I ship whole products. I have taken a marketplace app from first scaffold to both app stores alone, and I run a live geo-search platform on the side because I wanted a hard problem that was mine. I care about systems that fail loudly, migrations that need no maintenance window, and code the next person can read.

Away from client work I mentor junior developers and keep refining an agentic delivery pipeline that holds LLM coding agents to the same discipline I hold myself to.
