Experience and education

  1. Jun 2026 – Aug 2026

    Software Engineering Intern

    TAQA Distribution Company, Water Control Centre, Al Ain, UAE

    Seven-week internship (322 hours) hosted by the Water Control Centre, the facility that continuously monitors and remotely operates the potable water distribution network. Followed the control chain from field instruments up to SCADA, and in parallel designed and built a full-stack field operations reporting platform for the Maintenance and Field Operations department.

    • Built a React Native (Expo) mobile app, a Node.js/Express/Prisma/MongoDB backend and a Next.js supervisor dashboard with a real-time Socket.IO map
    • Hardened the backend: JWT with token-version revocation, presigned private S3 photo access, content-based upload validation, Zod validation, layered rate limiting
    • Wrote 196 automated tests across the three components (Jest, React Testing Library, Supertest)
