I build products end to end: the interface, the APIs behind it, and the AI that makes it useful. I've been doing that for a little over ten years, from Islamabad, mostly with teams spread across time zones.

The work has ranged from restaurant ordering, POS, and Stripe and Adyen payments, to a zero-trust access client on the web and Electron, to Polarr, a photo editor used by more than 20 million people. Right now I'm at HATO, building HLM Pro for intelligent lighting in poultry, dairy, and fish farms, plus the customer dashboard and the map tools the sales team uses.

On the side I ship GenAI products. Knowvio is a visual canvas that turns URLs, PDFs, videos, and notes into answers you can trace back to the source. Explain My Error and Mini Coding Agent are small command-line tools: one explains a failing test, the other loads only the agent skills a prompt actually needs.

I like owning a feature from the first screen through the data it writes. I'm open to senior full-stack and GenAI roles, remote or hybrid.
