Shahad Khalid Aljandal

Software Engineer based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Building modern web experiences with React, Node.js, Next.js, and the MERN stack.

About

A software engineer from Riyadh and a graduate of King Saud University. I build full-stack web applications, from frontend to backend, with care for clear interfaces and clean code that's easy to read and build on.

What draws me to tech is that it never stops changing. I enjoy challenges that push me out of my comfort zone, and curiosity, to me, is what makes a good developer.

I'm looking to work on meaningful projects that challenge me and help me grow.
