Founding Engineer @ Aaytham Consulting | Building 0→1 Products | Engineering, Product & Business

About

I'm a Founding Engineer who likes being close to both the technology and the business. I enjoy taking things from 0 → 1 — understanding a problem, figuring out what should be built, designing the system, writing the software, putting together the team, talking to customers and getting it into production. My engineering work spans backend systems, distributed architecture, AI/LLM applications, cloud infrastructure and product engineering. I work primarily with technologies like Java, Go, Python, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes and AWS. But engineering is only one part of what I enjoy. I've worked closely with customers, participated in technical sales and solutioning, helped shape products, made architecture decisions and led engineers through execution. I like operating across the boundaries between engineering, product, people and business. I want to understand the problem, build the solution and help make the thing work. Currently building at the intersection of AI, software and business.
