Hi, my name is
Ali Hewiagh
Senior Software Engineer
Architecting scalable backend systems and cloud infrastructure with 7+ years of experience. I specialize in NestJS, TypeScript, Python, AWS, and PostgreSQL, delivering production-grade applications that handle real-world complexity at scale.
Currently leading backend architecture at Quite Loud (UAE), where I design modular systems, implement Terraform-based AWS infrastructure, and integrate AI-powered automation to transform event-tech platforms.
When I'm not architecting systems or coding, you'll find me playing football, exploring new technologies, or enjoying coffee with family and friends.
Ali Hewiagh
Senior Software Engineer
Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience designing scalable backend systems, cloud architectures, and full-stack applications. From Libya 🇱🇾, now based in Kuala Lumpur 🇲🇾, I specialize in Node.js/NestJS, TypeScript, Python, PostgreSQL, and AWS infrastructure.
Currently leading backend architecture at Quite Loud (UAE), where I architect modular NestJS services, design AWS infrastructure with Terraform, and integrate AI-powered automation using LangChain and LangGraph and other tools to enhance operational efficiency across event-tech platforms.
Previously at Picl and Paper Video, I delivered high-performance platforms with semantic search, video streaming optimization, and 99.9% uptime. I also co-authored a published ML model for fraud detection in waste management systems.
My passion lies in building robust, scalable systems that solve real-world problems, whether it's architecting cloud infrastructure, optimizing database performance, or integrating AI capabilities into production applications.

03. Where I've Worked
Senior Software Engineer
Oct 2024 – Present
UAE (Remote)
- Led backend architecture for modular NestJS/TypeORM services powering multiple event-tech platforms
- Built scalable APIs, payment flows, media processing pipelines, and integrations with internal/third-party services
- Designed and deployed AWS infrastructure using Terraform (VPC, ECS, RDS, ALB, S3) with strong focus on reliability and security
- Improved developer workflows across CI/CD, observability, testing, and release processes
- Implemented LLM-powered automation pipelines using LangChain/LangGraph, enhancing operational efficiency
I work with teams to architect scalable backend systems and cloud infrastructure that power production applications across event-tech, ed-tech, and SaaS platforms using modern tools and technologies. I contribute to building high-performance APIs, front-end, designing resilient cloud architectures, and integrating AI capabilities to automate business workflows.
I'm always interested in hearing about new opportunities, challenging projects, or potential collaborations. Whether you have a question or just want to say hi, my inbox is always open!
