builds things that work

Software engineer, automation builder, and co-founder of a fiber ISP serving 300+ customers in Punjab. Currently leading the frontend and ML architecture of asmaan.com — Pakistan's first satellite-first real estate marketplace.

SCROLL TO EXPLORE

// 01 — ABOUT

I'm a final-year Software Engineering student at UMT Lahore. My work sits at the intersection of full-stack web development, geospatial systems, and workflow automation.

Before I wrote a line of Django, I was in the field — splicing fiber cables and knocking on doors in Choti Zareen. My brother built the infrastructure; I handled everything else: convincing customers to pay in advance before a single cable was laid, managing client onboarding, setting up the server room, and configuring MikroTik routers. We built a local ISP from zero to 300+ customers. That taught me more about execution and trust-building than any course could.

Today, I lead the frontend and ML engineering of asmaan.com, a real estate marketplace built on Django, React, and PostGIS. I'm open to internships in full-stack development and automation engineering.
