I’m Nabeel Shaikh, an AI Engineer based in Dubai, where I build production-ready AI systems spanning LLMs, computer vision, and autonomous AI agents. I specialize in RAG architectures, AI orchestration, and scalable backend services, and I enjoy turning complex requirements into reliable software that’s tested, secure, and ready to ship. In my recent work, I’ve helped design cross-platform mobile experiences backed by cloud services, built AI-powered chat and voice-enabled workflows, and implemented secure authentication and automated pipelines. I also enjoy developing applied research-style projects—like explainable object detection and rule-based reasoning for real-time inference—while continuously improving how AI systems perform in real-world settings.
