Majd Al Mnayer

Hi, I'm Majd

Currently a Software Engineer at Shopify, and I absolutely love what I do!


I value communication and reason above all else, and I am one of those who leverage AI for its true potential.


I love solving new problems. I don't like reinventing the wheel -- but I do like to know how it was invented. I also believe that every job is a job worth doing well.

How I Work

I could list my skills and toolkit, but in this AI-driven era, it's vast and ever-expanding.


In modern software development, I don't believe engineers are limited to a handful of technologies anymore. AI allows us to constantly adapt and learn on the go. What I do have are rock-solid fundamentals -- a deep understanding of computer science principles, data structures, algorithms, and system architecture. These fundamentals are the compass that guides me, no matter what stack or framework I'm working with.


There hasn't been a day where I'm not diving into something new -- a different technology, a fresh approach, or an unfamiliar codebase. When I hit a roadblock, I don't stay stuck. I use AI to unblock myself, explore solutions, and accelerate my learning. It's not about replacing knowledge; it's about amplifying it.


The tools change. The languages evolve. But the ability to think critically, architect systems, and solve problems? That's what matters. And that's what I bring to every project.

More About Me

If you scrolled down this far, then you'd like to know even more about me!


Beyond coding, I'm an avid World of Warcraft player. That's my main character, Holycow, a Tauren Paladin! I've had the privilege of being a raid leader and guild master. I was also proudly a part of several world first achievements: the Dazar'alor Raider and the Nathria Raider.


These experiences taught me invaluable lessons about leadership, communication, and coordination that translate directly into my work as a software engineer.
