πŸ‘‹ I'm Moaaz, a software engineer & designer. I've mostly worked with bits for most of my career, and am starting to tinker with atoms. I enjoy building products that solve meaningful problems for people.

I currently lead engineering at ETHGlobal – the most valuable community of developers building with decentralized technologies & building onchain apps.

Before that, I was a staff software engineer at Dialogue, building distributed systems to scale virtual healthcare to 2M+ Canadians.

I also spend some of my time helping start, advise & invest in early stage teams. Iβ€˜d love to hear from you if youβ€˜re building in healthcare, biotech, climate, clean energy, housing, education, food, gaming, transportation or manufacturing!

Beyond that I enjoy building projects on the side – right now I'm tinkering with low-cost robot arms & AI for robotics, making a 3D-printed rover, and building Spacedex – an app that helps generate spaced repetition flashcards for any topic.

I studied computer science at the University of Waterloo with a focus towards machine intelligence & human computer interaction, and a specialization in digital design.

My past work includes building Tutr, engineering at Coursera, Hack the North, FreshBooks and Hootsuite, and design at Mappedin.
