He specializes in reliability and scalability challenges in high\-volume environments, with particular strength in asynchronous processing, concurrency control, retry strategies, circuit breakers, and observability\. At Meta, Omar has worked on an enterprise notification platform that processes high volumes of events and improved its resilience so it could recover autonomously from traffic spikes within spike windows\. He connects technical reliability work to its customer\-facing impact and uses observability to identify bottlenecks more quickly\. Omar’s strongest technology stack includes TypeScript, React, Node\.js, and Python\. Although backend\-leaning, he is comfortable building React frontends and prefers end\-to\-end feature ownership that includes understanding customers and delivering complete products\. His experience also includes senior engineering roles at Microsoft, software engineering and application development roles at Cognizant, and teaching as an Instructor/Mentor at Stratford University\. Omar holds a Master of Science in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and Computer Science from Stratford University\. ## Services - SOLID Design Principles - RabbitMQ - Apache Kafka - Redis - Oracle Database - MySQL - Microsoft SQL Server - GitHub - Jenkins - Kubernetes - Docker - Amazon EC2 - AWS Lambda - Azure Functions - Azure DevOps Services - Microsoft Azure - Amazon Web Services \(AWS\) - Microservices - SOAP - GraphQL ## Highlights - Senior Software Engineer at Meta\. - Worked on Meta’s enterprise notification platform for high\-volume event processing\. - Improved notification\-platform resilience so the system could recover autonomously from traffic spikes within spike windows\. - Specializes in reliability and scalability challenges in distributed systems\. - Experienced with asynchronous processing, concurrency control, retry strategies, circuit breakers, and observability\. - Builds scalable backend systems, distributed systems, and data pipelines\. - Uses observability to identify bottlenecks faster\. - Connects customer\-facing reliability impact with engineering decisions\. - Strongest stack: TypeScript, React, Node\.js, and Python\. - Backend\-leaning engineer who can build React frontends for end\-to\-end product delivery\. - Prefers end\-to\-end feature ownership grounded in customer understanding\. - Previously served as a Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft\. - Previously worked as a Software Engineer at Cognizant\. - Previously worked as an Application Developer at Cognizant\. - Served as an Instructor/Mentor at Stratford University\. - Earned an M\.S\. in Computer Science from Stratford University in 2013\. - Earned a B\.S\. in Mathematics and Computer Science from Stratford University in 2011\. - Technical skills include SOLID Design Principles, RabbitMQ, Apache Kafka, Redis, Oracle Database, MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, GitHub, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Docker, Amazon EC2, AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, Azure DevOps Services, Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, microservices, SOAP, and GraphQL\. ## Experience - **Senior Software Engineer at Meta** (2021–present) - **Senior Software Engineer at Microsoft** (2019–2021) - **Software Engineer at Cognizant** (2016–2019) - **Application Developer at Cognizant** (2015–2016) - **Instructor/Mentor at Stratford University** (2013–2014) ## Education - Master of Science, Computer Science — Stratford University (2011–2013) - Bachelor of Science, Mathematics and Computer Science — Stratford University (2008–2011) ## FAQ ### What does Omar do?
