Meshwar EG
Ride-hailing microservices platform
01 / Overview
Meshwar is a ride-hailing platform I built and engineered. It serves more than 30,000 active users on a backend of 7 Node.js microservices that expose 400+ REST APIs, containerized with Docker and orchestrated on Kubernetes.
02 / Problem
Meshwar is a ride-hailing service in Egypt. A product like this has to match riders with drivers in real time, handle trips and pricing, process payments, and keep both sides of the marketplace in sync at all times, on the web and on mobile.
I owned the engineering end to end: the system architecture, the backend services, the APIs, and the path to production.
03 / What I built
Meshwar runs as a web platform and a pair of mobile apps on top of a services backend that I designed to scale.
- Rider mobile app in React Native, live on the App Store and Google Play
- A backend of 7 Node.js microservices
- More than 400 REST APIs across the services
- Docker images for every service
- Kubernetes for orchestration, scaling, and rollouts
- Automated CI/CD pipelines for safe, repeatable deploys
04 / How it works
The backend is split into seven Node.js microservices rather than one monolith. Each service owns a slice of the domain, such as trips, drivers, and payments, and talks to the others over well defined REST contracts. That separation is what let the platform grow past 30,000 users without a single service becoming a bottleneck.
Every service ships as a Docker container, and Kubernetes handles orchestration, scaling, and rolling deploys. Automated CI/CD pipelines run the path from commit to production so releases stay safe and repeatable.
05 / Outcome
Meshwar scaled to more than 30,000 active users on this architecture, with the rider app live on both the App Store and Google Play.
The microservices split, the 400+ APIs, and the Kubernetes setup are the kind of systems work I now bring to other platforms that need to scale.
