Full-stack software engineer
I'm Ali, a software engineer with 7+ years across web, mobile, cloud, and AI powered systems. I like turning fuzzy problems into reliable products people enjoy using.

Selected work
My best work sits where product thinking meets technical depth: shaping the experience, designing the APIs, and making sure it all runs reliably.
An AI video creation and publishing platform that turns long form content into ready to share short clips.
I built the product across frontend, backend, infrastructure, and deployment: clipping, captions, reframing, content generation, and integrations with major social platforms.
