Mohamed ELTorky

A leading national fitness operator across KSA & UAE. CTO’s primary delivery consultant for cloud transformation.

• Led the AWS Data Center Exit end-to-end: stood up a Cloud-First landing zone on AWS Control Tower (multi-account guardrails), designed core VPC networking, and delivered secure connectivity to AWS Bahrain over the enterprise SD-WAN.
• Brought generative AI to production on AWS — designed RAG pipelines and built LLM agents on Amazon Bedrock and open-source frameworks, including the data ingestion, retrieval, and guardrail architecture around them.
• Modernized Azure PaaS (App Service Linux) to AWS serverless (Lambda + Bref for Laravel) with API Gateway, CloudFront, SQS, S3, DMS, RDS + RDS Proxy, ElastiCache and MongoDB Atlas — driving a major recurring OPEX reduction.
• Authored the Vision 2030 ISV multi-tenant SaaS architecture (tenancy isolation, shared services, VPC Lattice) — validated by AWS senior engineers and Gartner with no material changes required.
• Owned observability end-to-end: implemented IBM Instana, then migrated to Datadog (APM, infra, alerting) to cut MTTR. Rebuilt the DevSecOps pipeline (GitHub Actions → Jenkins) with split SAST/DAST/SCA and Checkmarx release gates.

Class-1 ranked, top-five KSA construction operator.

• Ran discovery with stakeholders and produced target-state designs and decision memos with tradeoffs and risk.
• Evaluated low-code direction (Creatio → Mendix on technical fit) and defined the enterprise hosting and operating model.
• Designed and built an on-prem Kubernetes platform for Mendix — Ansible-automated node provisioning, MetalLB load balancing, and enterprise network/security integration.

B2C/B2B construction-procurement startup (later acquired by Albawani).

• Designed scalable AWS architecture for prod/staging/test with account isolation via AWS Organizations.
• Migrated workloads off DigitalOcean/Vultr to AWS, decoupling services to remove single points of failure.
• Ran load/stress tests (JMeter, ApacheBench) and delivered an exec-ready performance comparison report.
