Usama Iqbal
@usamaiqbal6
Software engineer at Deltalabs building production Rails and React products, including an IoT telemetry platform and governed AI conversations.
What I'm looking for
At Deltalabs, I shipped client product work end to end, from Ruby on Rails schemas and services to the React screens that use them. On AkkioTech, I developed a modular Rails service for multi-step AI conversations, with business API tools, rate limits, turn limits, and a human handoff path.
At Invensphere, I designed and built an IoT platform spanning device communications, backend services, and a React monitoring dashboard. I also worked on IqPod’s LoRaWAN telemetry stack, using ChirpStack, gRPC and Protobuf, and built retry and queue handling for downlinks over a lossy network.
