About Fares

Tech Lead .NET specialized in ecosystem modernization and application performance improvement.
I support teams in designing reliable, secure, and scalable solutions: distributed architectures (Event-Driven, gRPC), API integration, data optimization, and resilience (Polly, Redis, Outbox).
Experienced in complex environments (finance, automotive, retail), I cover the entire lifecycle: scoping, architecture, development, performance, and developer support.

Objective: reduce technical debt, stabilize platforms, and accelerate delivery.
