Hamza was a great addition to our team! He did a great job and gave us recommendations on technologies we could implement throughout the entire project. Having the initiative to provide us with options and the pros/cons of each was a great value add he offered us. If you need to develop software I wouldn't look anywhere else, Hamza is your guy. I wish him well in all his future endeavors. Looking forward to continue working with you!
