Hi, I'm Zayd

Building enterprise-grade .NET systems and leading engineering teams. Currently Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft.

About Me

I'm a .NET engineer who grew up on Angular — and eventually grew into leading the teams that build with them.
With 5+ years of experience, I've designed Azure-native architectures, led 3 concurrent development teams at CGI for Orange Telecom, and migrated large-scale ERP systems from the ground up.
Based in Tetouan, Morocco 🇲🇦, I specialize in building scalable cloud solutions, implementing robust CI/CD pipelines, and mentoring engineering teams to deliver enterprise-grade software.
