Shaady Dawood is a seasoned technology leader and Director of Engineering with more than two decades in commercial software, currently leading engineering at talabat and advising scale-ups through his firm SLYD Enterprises. He blends hands-on architecture and cloud expertise—particularly in serverless, Big Data and stream processing—with deep Agile coaching, having built and mentored 250+ engineers and converted struggling projects into high-performing teams. His career spans startups and large enterprises across Egypt, Australia, Europe and the US, with proven results in cost savings and scalability from cloud-native re-architecture and automation. A pragmatic polyglot engineer (C++, Java, Python, Go, JavaScript) and early advocate of event-sourcing, reactive streams and functional patterns, he routinely pairs system design with operational discipline (SRE/DevOps). Not obvious from titles: he co-founded two startups and an offshore development centre and frequently teaches advanced topics—from distributed stream processing to functional design—bridging executive strategy and day-to-day engineering.
