Hi, I'm Oussama.

Since 2021 I've worked on apps for PepsiCo, Nivoda and CloudWind, from native modules and architecture to CI/CD and store releases.

What I care about most is the last ten percent, the part users feel but never mention.

Got an app in mind? Freelance contract or full-time role. Tell me what you're building and I'll get back to you.
