AI Engineer and Full-Stack Developer, Amman, Jordan
I build my way out of problems, then put the result online.
Currently AI Engineer at Kawkab AI. Open to roles and freelance work, remote worldwide.
I'm a full-stack developer and AI engineer in Amman, Jordan. I started coding in 2021 out of curiosity and never stopped.
Most of what I ship began as friction in my own workday: a step that was slow, manual, or missing, turned into a product that removed it.
In 2024 I launched belal.work, so the fixes I build for myself are live for everyone else who has the same problem.
Based in Amman, Jordan. Open to relocation, and happy working remote across timezones.
Nearly every project here started the same way: something at work was slow, manual, or missing, so I built the thing that fixed it. One of them is just a chess board, because some problems are worth having.

Documents, 2024
The problem
Signing one line of a contract meant printing the whole document, signing it, scanning it back, and emailing a worse copy than the one I started with.
What I built
Add signatures and text annotations to PDF documents directly in the browser, with no upload, no account, and the file never leaves the machine.
No account, 100% in-browser, Free

Developer, 2025
The problem
Our docs lived in Markdown but every stakeholder wanted a Word file, and converting by hand broke the tables, math, and diagrams every single time.
What I built
Converts Markdown and MDX into fully formatted Word documents entirely client-side, with full GFM support, math equations, diagrams, custom styles, no server, and no uploads.
Zero data collection, Works offline, Free

Writing, 2024
The problem
Writing copy against platform character limits meant pasting drafts into whichever ad-covered counter site loaded first, then guessing at keyword density.
What I built
Accurate word and character counter with SEO keyword density analysis, per-platform character limits, and reading time estimates, running entirely in the browser.

Design, 2025
The problem
Pulling a palette out of a brand image and then proving it passed contrast took three different sites and a lot of copy-paste between them.
What I built
Generate palettes and gradients, extract them straight from an image, check contrast, and explore harmonious combinations for UI and branding, all in one place.
Image extraction, Contrast checker, Free

Education, 2026
The problem
Government IT jobs here are won on a competitive exam, and the people sitting it were revising from scattered PDFs with no way to practise under exam conditions or see what they kept getting wrong.
What I built
A quiz trainer for the government IT exam, covering SQL Server, Oracle Forms, .NET Core, C#, Entity Framework, testing, and English. Run a topic as practice or as a timed exam, review every mistake, and track your stats across attempts.

Why Every Tool I Ship Runs Entirely in the Browser
No server, no account, no upload: the constraint that shapes everything on belal.work, and why I keep choosing it even when it's the harder path.

Turning Markdown Into a Real Word Document, Client-Side
MarkFlow started as a weekend itch. I needed a .md file as a .docx for a client who doesn't read Markdown. Here's what actually made that hard.

Eleven Tools, One Domain, No Roadmap
belal.work isn't a product with a plan. It's what happens when you build the tool you needed, ship it under one subdomain, and repeat.
Tell me the task you'd happily never do again. I'm open to roles and freelance work, remote worldwide, and usually reply within an hour.
