I build high-scale backend systems and real-time data pipelines for IoT.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Software Engineer focused on building high-scale backend systems and real-time data pipelines. At Intelliwork SMC Lahore, I engineered a Kafka-based telemetry pipeline for 100,000+ IoT smart meters, processing 1M+ messages/sec using .NET, Kafka, and PostgreSQL to reduce data latency by 40%.
I also deliver end-to-end production capabilities—from distributed scheduling to customer-ready UI. I built a distributed job scheduler with Quartz.NET for recurring and one-off tasks, enabling automated firmware OTA updates across an IoT device fleet, and I developed responsive React features that improved onboarding experience and increased customer growth by 30%.
Beyond telemetry, I’ve shipped systems for large-scale energy infrastructure, including the DCMG platform for LUMS across 100+ remote solar sites—combining a Flutter app for field engineers, a real-time energy dashboard, and a .NET device control API to significantly reduce manual site visits. I reinforce this engineering with hands-on projects and learning, like AWS S3 secure file storage (with in-browser viewing), an AI-driven RehabGuardian using .NET, Python, React, and AWS to improve patient recovery by up to 40%, and a logistics Distribution Management System using Google Maps API and Dijkstra’s algorithm for shortest-path routing.
