Abdulrahman Morshed —software engineer.
I'm Abdulrahman, a software engineer based in Buraydah. For six years I've built products and stayed with them after launch — Flutter apps, Django backends, Next.js web, payment integrations and real-time systems.
Today I lead engineering at Somow and I'm responsible for Abber, Wisal and Azbah — from architecture and the backend through payments, releases and whatever breaks in production.
The part I care about is what happens after launch: architecture the team can work in, review that catches things early, and monitoring that tells you before a user does. On my team that took QA-reported defects down by half.

Abber
Dream & Vision Interpretation Marketplace
A marketplace where someone sends a dream and gets it interpreted by a vetted interpreter. I built and run it end-to-end: a Django backend covering ~30 business domains, the Flutter app, payments, wallet, store, live sessions — and the production operation behind all of it.

Maskani
Social Real-Estate Platform
A real-estate platform where owners deal with clients directly — listings, services, jobs, property requests and real-time chat. I built three client applications against one Django platform in Docker: the Flutter app, an internal operations app, and the Next.js web app. It runs across six countries.

Azbah
Group Expenses & Settle-Up
Group members split expenses and settle claims between each other by wallet or cash, on a strict double-entry ledger with an operations panel behind it. Financial edge cases are resolved in the ledger rather than patched in the interface.

- ledger store
- Django REST
- backend
Wisal
Consultation Marketplace
Paid consultations with verified vendors over chat and VoIP calls, settled through a wallet. I designed the money flows around double-entry accounting rules instead of treating the wallet as a running balance, so refunds, holds and payouts reconcile.

How I work
The tools change; the process doesn't.
I start with the problem, not the framework. Requirements, system design, implementation, testing, deployment — then production support, which is where most of the real decisions show up. That has taken me across mobile apps, Django backends, real-time systems, payment integrations and AI tooling. I've moved between stacks when the product required it: Java, then Flutter, then Django, then Next.js, then multi-agent systems. The tools changed; the process didn't.
