Aghyad Ghziel

Full-Stack Developer

React and Next.js, end to end — with a specialty in real-time 3D and Arabic-first interfaces.

Profile

I am a full-stack developer with a Computer Science degree, working in React, Next.js and TypeScript on the front and Node and Postgres behind them. I spent two years on SaaS products for startups — AI model tooling at Bagel Labs, where I led the front end, and a two-sided marketplace at Alpha Factory, both with real users, subscription billing and role-based access. I now run SIMA Studio, my own studio in Riyadh, where the same stack carries two things most developers do not do: real-time 3D in the browser, and Arabic-first interfaces built right to left from the first line.
