CTO at Zenit Corp · Karachi · clients in the UK and Canada
I'm Afaq Javed, a CTO and full-stack engineer with 7+ years of shipping software. I help founders and teams turn AI, SaaS and IoT ideas into production products that customers pay for, from the first prototype or connected device to a platform that scales on AWS.
Code. Lead.
Inspire. Repeat.
Introduction
A short video on who I am, how I work and how I can help you ship your AI, SaaS or IoT product.
Services
AI and connected devices are only useful once they sit inside a product people can rely on. I cover the whole path, from idea to full production: the product, the devices feeding it, the platform under it and the team that runs it.
Take an AI idea from prototype to a working SaaS product, with the architecture, interface and reliability that paying customers expect, shipped from scratch to full production.
Turn connected hardware into a SaaS product: firmware that talks to the cloud, real-time dashboards, multi-tenant access and billing, built to run unattended in the field.
Add AI to the software you already run. Assistants, automation and smarter workflows, built into your current stack and your current data.
Scalable infrastructure for products that need to grow: device fleets, time-series data, queues, caching and deployment, handled properly from the start.
Technical direction for your product, plus workshops and one-to-one coaching for engineers who need to get productive with AI quickly.
Journey
Every role added a layer: writing the code, owning the stack, leading the team, speaking for developers, and now setting the technical direction.
