Hi, I’m Issam. I’m here to help you turn technical skills into leadership impact, using the same straightforward, real-world approach I’ve relied on while leading teams in the US Big Tech scene.
I’ve spent my career in the US tech ecosystem, from fast-paced startups to leading digital transformations at an enterprise scale. I know that the most successful people in this industry aren’t just the ones who code the best; they are the ones who understand how to design scalable systems and navigate the human side of engineering.
Whether you’re a Software Engineer looking to level up or an Engineering Manager feeling stuck, I’m here to be your sounding board. I’ve sat on both sides of the hiring table and conducted 150+ interviews. I’ve seen what works and where people get stuck. My goal is to be a mentor who can provide honest, supportive, and actionable feedback to help you get that next promotion or offer.
What we can work on together:
- For Engineers: Transitioning to Senior/Staff, mastering System Design (HLD/LLD), and building a personal brand that gets noticed by US recruiters.
- For Managers: Moving from IC to Lead, managing "managers of managers," and navigating the unique politics of large US organizations.
- Interview & Career Strategy: Refining your storytelling so your impact is undeniable in competitive hiring pools.
I’m a big believer in "no-filter" feedback, but always in a way that helps you grow. Let’s figure out your next move together.
I’ve spent years building teams and navigating hiring committees in major US firms. I know the process can feel like a black box-let's open it up together and build a clear, stress-free path for your career growth.
