Software engineer at Arbisoft. I take loosely defined problems, make the architecture calls and own them end to end, often in stacks I hadn't touched before.
Four projects, written up around the decisions behind them rather than feature lists. Each page opens with the key calls if you only have a minute.
Authentication built into the product: an access directory with roles, encrypted multi provider OIDC and opt in local passwords, all kept in sync with Grafana.
Team scoped Claude Code telemetry flowing into DevLake. An authenticated OpenTelemetry Collector with trusted attribution, Prometheus for live metrics and a durable MySQL path for analytics.
A financial literacy platform for Pakistan with market data, funds, insurance, tax and budgeting, plus a chatbot that answers from real filings.
A listening first archive of Lutfullah Khan's reel to reel recordings of poets, musicians and public figures. Built around audio playback that survives navigation.
University work and projects outside a job.
A mobile app for Pakistani university students to search, rate and review instructors, with moderation for reviews. I built sign in, sign up and the onboarding flow that collects academic background, university preferences and career goals.
Team of four. Flutter, Firebase, Cloudflare Workers
A vehicle rental and listing app. Next.js on the front, an Express REST API behind it and MongoDB for listings and rentals, with authentication throughout.
Team project. Next.js, Express, MongoDB, Vercel
Marketing site for a membership program for Islamic scholars and educators, built in Webflow from Figma so the client can keep editing it themselves.
Arbisoft. Webflow, Figma
Fixed a plugin migration that left a MySQL table without a primary key, which Group Replication needs to bring a node back cleanly. Built an admin tool that splits blueprints with hundreds of repositories into staggered child blueprints instead of patching DevLake's scheduler.
Arbisoft. Go, MySQL
Custom purchase request, approval and repair tracking modules plus the migration path toward Odoo 19 through OpenUpgrade.
Arbisoft internal ERP. Python, PostgreSQL, OpenUpgrade
A tutoring marketplace for NUST students. Tutors list classes per course and students find and message them. JWT auth, email verification and a course list scraped from NUST. I built most of it and a teammate handled deployment.
Next.js, Express, MySQL
A small early university project. I wrote the scraping core that pulls a student's data out of NUST's Qalam and LMS portals, which was then wrapped into a Flask dashboard and deployed.
Python, Selenium, BeautifulSoup, Flask
I like owning an app end to end: the architecture, the backend, the UI, the deploy pipeline and the dashboards that tell you it's working. When there's no designer, I'll do the design pass too.
Most of the job is deciding what to build, what to leave out and which boring option will actually hold up. I use AI coding agents for a lot of the typing, behind tests and code review, but I know how everything I ship works and why it was built that way. The case studies here are written around those decisions.
I'm comfortable landing in codebases I've never seen. At Arbisoft that has meant a large Go fork of Apache DevLake, an Odoo ERP, a Next.js audio archive and a Webflow build, picking up each stack as I went. The approach stays the same: read the existing system, write a plan with its non goals, check the assumptions against real data and then build the simplest thing that meets the requirement. The authentication and telemetry work for DevLake both changed direction once the product needs or the data said so.
Before Arbisoft I spent about a year and a half at vFairs looking after 60+ production scrapers and building internal data tools, test automation and event AI features. I did my CS degree at NUST, where my final year project was Finasaan.
