I'm Emad — a Staff Software Engineer who builds multi-agent AI systems and developer tooling that makes engineers' lives easier. The road from Egypt to the Netherlands taught me that great software is as much about people as it is about code. 🇳🇱 Dutch, Egyptian at heart 🇪🇬 · ☪️ Muslim · 💍 husband · 🏗️ lifelong builder · 🌱 forever learning. I ship, I teach, and I grow a little every day.
