I'm Abdul — I take products from idea to shipped, working fast with coding agents and close to the people who use them.

Own a telemetry platform in production across hundreds of devices.
Multi-tenant SaaS for mosques.
Curious? Ask away.
Things I've built & shipped.
A multi-tenant SaaS giving mosques mobile + web apps and real-time announcements — built for a founding customer, the Islamic Society of Sheboygan, on Hono, Postgres with row-level security, Drizzle ORM, and a cross-platform Flutter app. In development: an AI assistant to help admins manage their masjid and spark ideas, plus an AI-powered recommendation system that helps people discover events in their area.
Built object-detection models end to end — data labeling, training, evaluation, and edge inference — making the calls on resolution and dataset sizing to hit accuracy and latency targets.
Wearable for the blind — ESP32 firmware, BLE, real-time spatial-audio guidance. Instructor's Award.
How I got here.
Build and evaluate object-detection models (YOLO/PyTorch) end to end — labeling, training, evaluation, and edge inference — and the real-time systems around them. Own a telemetry platform in production, moving data from hundreds of connected devices to Azure: REST APIs, real-time pipelines, and observability. Built a prototype — a custom rendering pipeline sustaining 60+ FPS — compelling enough to climb from my skip-level to the CIO to a full C-suite review, where it informed a strategic call on the program's direction.
Founded and building a multi-tenant SaaS for mosques — mobile + web apps and real-time announcements on Hono, Postgres (RLS) and Flutter — for a founding customer, the Islamic Society of Sheboygan. In development: AI to help admins manage their masjid and spark ideas, plus AI-powered event recommendations for people exploring what's near them.
Built AR applications with sub-1/16″ accuracy and helped launch Kohler's Digital Work Instruction team — presenting the architecture to VPs along the way.
Early software engineering internship building internal tools and services.
CS 415 Course Assistant. Senior-design winner — Smart Glasses for the Blind.
