@ahadiqbal
I build backend APIs, event-driven systems, and applied AI agents using Java, Python, and cloud-ready infrastructure.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently building backend services as a Backend AI Engineer Intern at FlyRank AI, where I developed a Task Management REST API in Node.js and Express and migrated its storage across in-memory, SQLite, and containerized PostgreSQL backends without changing its public API contract.
I've shipped an event-driven inventory and order-processing backend with Java, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ, Docker, JWT access control, pessimistic locking, circuit breakers, and integration tests against real infrastructure.
I also build applied AI systems, including Project GIGI, an autonomous Linux desktop agent that routes between Gemini and Ollama through LiteLLM and blocks destructive commands before an LLM call.
My project work includes Python trading engines for XAU/USD and forex hedging, plus an Islamabad house-price prediction web app built with web scraping, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, and Flask.
