Founded and engineered an AI-powered platform that matches students with scholarships, internships, fellowships, hackathons, grants, and remote opportunities. Built authentication, profile management, opportunity discovery, personalized matching, and AI-assisted workflows for generating SOPs, cover letters, motivation letters, and personal statements. Integrated Gemini through Google Cloud and Vertex AI with Firebase Authentication and Firestore. Shipped the initial platform in under 20 days, reaching 58 Pro users and approximately PKR 300,000 in revenue. The project was selected among the Top 100 projects and startups in the Build with Gemini / XPRIZE competition.

Contributed to a five-student UET Lahore team developing an educational CubeSat Flight Demonstrator under SUPARCO guidance. Integrated an ESP32-based onboard computer for GPS, IMU, sensor interfaces, telemetry, and communications with a Raspberry Pi 5 payload computer. Developed a web-based Ground Station for command transmission, telemetry workflows, payload control, and LoRa communication. Worked on an RF/COMINT payload using bladeRF, modulation classification, RF signal analysis, MUSIC direction-of-arrival estimation, optical and thermal sensing, and simulated RF geolocation using POCA and WGS-84 Earth modeling.

Built Python automation tools supporting AI research workflows, dataset preparation, benchmarking, and technical data-processing tasks. Contributed to AI model evaluation and workflow optimization across specialized technical assignments.
