ABOUT ME
Enterprise Software, Connected Systems & Cloud Infra Architect
Enterprise Software, Connected Systems & Cloud Infra Architect

I am an experienced Enterprise Technology Architect with a comprehensive background in designing and deploying advanced technology solutions. My expertise spans cloud, on-premises, and hybrid infrastructures, as well as software architecture, R&D, and edge device integration. I have a solid track record in integrating emerging technologies like AI, blockchain, and IoT into enterprise environments, enabling businesses to innovate and maintain a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.

What I offer:

Technology Solutions

Scalable and secure cloud solutions that modernise operations while seamlessly integrating on-premises, cloud-based systems and edge devices. These solutions focus on enhancing performance and security, evolving with your business needs while safeguarding critical data.

API Integration

Extensive experience with the "Symfony API Platform" and Kong API Gateway to develop robust, scalable backends and microservices. This combination ensures efficient API management, enhanced security, and precise control over API traffic, making applications more resilient against digital challenges.

Emerging Technologies:

Advisory and implementation services for cutting-edge technologies like IoT, AI, blockchain, and edge computing. Transforming innovative concepts into scalable, real-world solutions that deliver tangible business benefits, whether through enhanced data processing at the edge or leveraging AI for smarter decision-making.

Content Modernisation with Headless CMS and Composable Architecture

Specialisation in transforming legacy content management systems into modern, scalable solutions using headless CMS architectures combined with frameworks like Nuxt 3. This approach improves content management, security, and performance, enabling seamless content updates and reducing the attack surface associated with traditional systems.

Identity Management

Design and implementation of OAuth2 and OpenID Connect (OIDC) frameworks to provide secure and scalable user authentication tailored to both enterprise and SaaS platforms.

Security and Compliance

Development and implementation of comprehensive cybersecurity strategies to protect both cloud and on-premises infrastructures, ensuring compliance with international standards and safeguarding sensitive data.

DevOps and Cloud Architecture

Enhancement of operational efficiency through the adoption of DevOps practices, including Docker, Kubernetes, and serverless architectures. Expertise in managing complex infrastructures across various environments such as AWS, Hetzner, and Digital Ocean.

Technology R&D and Proof of Concept Design

Comprehensive support for research and development activities, including the design and execution of proof of concept projects. Ideal for businesses looking to explore and validate emerging technologies before full-scale implementation. Whether experimenting with AI, IoT, blockchain, or other advanced technologies, expertise is provided to turn innovative ideas into tangible prototypes. For example, in a recent project, large language models (LLMs) were utilised to enhance digital document interaction, resulting in more intuitive and user-friendly systems.

Software Architecture and Development

Design and development of bespoke software solutions using industry-leading frameworks like Symfony, Java Spring, Python FastAPI, NodeJS, and Jamstack frameworks like Nuxt 3 and Tailwind. The approach ensures seamless integration with existing systems or modernisation of legacy platforms.

Industry Expertise

Experience across various sectors, including automotive, e-commerce, construction, and aviation, with technology solutions aligned to strategic business goals to drive meaningful and lasting value.

It was really great to work with Iyyaz. He knows a lot about backend and knows a lot of about many technologies, so he ultimately helped me come up with a great solution. He also works in a very structured way and provided me slides/graphics so that I can better understand the technology and context.
