👋 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 Android Engineer 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 understands architecture, questions trade-offs, learns relentlessly, and builds with clarity and intent.
This role is for someone who wants to take ownership, challenge the status quo, and grow into a technical leader — not just deliver features.

💡 Why join my team?
Because I’m not just building an app —
I’m building a culture where people push each other toward excellence, with humility and ambition.
You’ll get real ownership, continuous mentorship, and a place where your technical voice matters.
You’ll build things you’ll be proud of — and become someone you’ll be proud of too.

• You have solid experience with Android (Kotlin) and modern development practices.
• You care about architecture, clean code, and product quality.
• You’re always looking to learn and improve, not just code faster.
• You don't say “this is not my problem” — you find solutions and help others.
