GitHub Profile

The Challenge & Context

A wholesale supplier in Riyadh was struggling with slow manual invoicing and needed automated ZATCA Phase 2 clearance before regulatory deadlines.

The Engineered Solution

I architected a modular Laravel background worker pipeline that parses order events, generates UBL 2.1 XML payloads, signs them with cryptographic CSIDs, and sends them to the ZATCA API asynchronously using Redis queues.

Key Engineering Takeaway

Decoupling regulatory validation from the user checkout flow prevents third-party latency from affecting customer transactions.
