Zaman.

I am a software engineer, specializing in AI/Machine Learning with 6+ years of production-level experience, and 3+ years of leadership experience in managing engineers and projects.

In 2020, I co-founded Markopolo, an AI SaaS company, raised $500K, built a marketing automation tool with LLM (before they were cool) that became the 4th product of the day on Product Hunt, managed a team of 11, scaled the business to 130+ clients and $1M+ ARR within 1.5 years, and exited.

At Blackbird.ai, I built ETL pipelines that processed 10GB+ real-time streaming data and PB-scale offline data. At Zeitdice, I train machine learning models, and develop and maintain a scalable infrastructure for the models.

In the past, I won 5x AI and 2x grants in AI from organizations such as Microsoft, L3Harris, Telus, Mitacs, etc. Received the fully-funded Lester B. Pearson International Scholarship to study at UofT Engineering.

Fun fact: I have officers' basic military training, during which I mastered the art of sleeping while standing.
