Frankfurt, GermanyI build useful software
I build useful software
that just works.
I’m Ali, a full-stack engineer building across web, cloud and AI-powered products. I like thoughtful interfaces, reliable systems, and making complex workflows easier to use.
About
Thoughtful interfaces. Reliable systems. A practical approach to building.
I build full-stack products that bring clear interfaces and dependable engineering together. My work spans SaaS, healthtech, education and connected booking systems.
At kolula, I worked across the product: frontend experiences, backend APIs, payments and AWS-powered smart locker automation. Before that, I built platforms for mentorship and enterprise teams at Kavelogics and NETSOL.
I’m completing my M.Eng. in Information Technology at Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, building on a B.Sc. in Computer Engineering from UET Lahore.
