AI Solutions Architect & Technical Lead
Shaik Muzammil Ahmed
I've been writing software for over a decade. Today I'm a Solution Architect at Wings Micro Systems, onsite with a leading global airline in Doha — taking AI solutions from proof of value to deployment. Before that I architected Azure-based Generative AI for enterprise and government in Abu Dhabi, and spent seven years at M2P Fintech building AI and full-stack products at real scale (think 3M+ documents/month, models trained for 120+ countries). Outside the day job, I build my own things end-to-end as a freelancer and founder — from AI video pipelines to event-photo platforms and smart contracts.
