Mohannad Azzi

Software Development Manager · Mobile Engineering Leader

Twenty years of engineering, more than a decade of it leading teams. I direct mobile and technical delivery across fintech, mobility and telecom — virtual banking apps, government digital-service platforms, and the tooling that speeds up everyone building them.

I started in 2006 writing .NET ERP systems — payroll, inventory, accounting — the kind of software where a rounding error is somebody's salary. That grounding in correctness and data still shapes how I build.

By 2009 I was leading a technical team, and I've been leading ever since: Java EE services, REST platforms for telecom, then mobile. The through-line is delivery — taking a product from architecture to something that actually ships and keeps working.

Today I direct mobile engineering delivery at EJADA. My job is less about writing every screen and more about architecture, code quality, delivery cadence and the people doing the work — plus translating what the business needs into technical strategy the team can execute.
