I build AI systems using RAG, LLMs, computer vision, and machine learning for real-world workflows.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I'm a Data Science undergraduate at FAST NUCES building AI systems for real-world workflows, from document intelligence to opportunity detection and health screening.
During AI internships at Nokia and Stewart Title, I applied machine learning and data analytics to network optimization research and AI-driven improvements to internal business-system workflows.
As a Research Assistant at FAST NUCES, I'm leading a structured SOTA review of federated learning for medical image segmentation and contributing to a paper on privacy-preserving medical image analysis.
I've also contributed to AI and scientific open-source projects with INCF and AOSSIE, improving retrieval systems, reranking algorithms, backend AI integrations, and full-stack platform features.
