About Me

Building production AI systems, not demos

I’m Majeed — a builder with strong technical depth, focused on backend systems, AI-enabled products, and end-to-end execution.

I build and operate software systems that integrate AI into real products. My work spans backend architecture, data pipelines, and production AI workflows, including retrieval-augmented generation, async processing, and cost-aware inference.

Much of my experience comes from building things end-to-end in ambiguous environments, across startups, education, and early-stage products. I’ve learned firsthand how technical decisions, design tradeoffs, and failure handling shape outcomes in production.

Today, I focus on building systems, tools, and platforms where technical depth, judgment, and execution matter — especially at the intersection of technology, product, and people.
