Hello, I'm Ahad. I'm a Software Engineer with a year of professional experience. I enjoy building websites & apps
About Me
Ever since a young age, I have been fascinated with everything tech. It started with messing about with computers and now to building full fledged apps. I graduated in June 2021 with a degree in Computer Engineering and developed a strong interest in providing solutions to problems. Throughout my University and career, I have built projects that involve Deep learning, SaaS, AWS, Restful APIs, Springboot, React and much more.
I am currently looking for full-time Junior opportunities in Software Engineering or Product Management.
When I am not working or building projects, I like to play and watch football (Real Madrid fan btw). I am also an active gamer of AAA titles and I also occasionally play guitar as well.
