Belal Nagy
Software Engineer — Full-Stack Developer
Profile
Full-stack developer based in Alexandria, Egypt. I work in Next.js, Laravel, NestJS, Node.js, Django and PostgreSQL. I am currently a Software Engineer at ezSec Inc in Canada, working remotely.
I am the sole developer on Bilqalam Institute, a production learning platform serving thousands of enrolled students. It handles student enrollment and management, billing and invoicing, and the admin reporting dashboards the institute runs on. I built it and I maintain it alone, in Next.js and Laravel.
I also built a multi-tenant LMS engine that runs as three separately branded accredited platforms, Injaz, HC Holding and Mada Education, on one hardened Django and PostgreSQL core. I co-founded Indstrz, a B2B industrial platform, and taught front-end development to 440+ students as an external instructor at ITI. Arabic and RTL work goes into every project I ship, including the financial and data-heavy interfaces.

- 100% positive client reviews on Khamsat and Nafezly
- Taught front-end development to 440+ students at ITI
