Summary
Omar Shafy is a Senior Back End Developer with 8 years of experience building resilient, high-performance microservices and payment systems across fintech and AI-driven startups. He specializes in pragmatic system design—refactoring legacy Java into provider-agnostic Go services, implementing saga-based orchestration for card issuance, and applying MongoDB performance patterns to preserve monetary accuracy. Omar has led Kafka-driven integrations, async audit pipelines, and custom LLM wrappers for Arabic transcription, blending backend engineering with AI tooling. Comfortable across Node.js, Python, and Go, he favors concurrency and fault-tolerant patterns that reduce latency and prevent silent state drift between providers. Based in Cairo, he pairs a breadth-first curiosity with deep, domain-focused solutions, often spotting edge-case failure modes before they surface in production.
