👋 Hi, my name is Mohammed.
I'm an Engineering Manager at Yassir, leading the tech teams behind our financial services channels.
I’m currently hiring a Senior Full Stack Engineer (React / Node.js) to join my team — someone who’s not just here to code, but to build, grow, and lead by example.
🚀 I’m building a team driven by one mindset: Best by Excellence.
A team where engineers don’t just ship features — they own problems, care about craft, and push each other to grow.
Where autonomy meets collaboration, and where we challenge ourselves to be better — every day.
That’s why I’m not looking for someone to just write code.
I’m looking for an engineer — someone who thinks, questions, learns, and builds with purpose.
Someone who wants to make an impact, not just deliver tickets.
