Associate Software Engineer, Acme One

He builds intelligent systems that reach production — and the conventional software they run inside.

An illustration of retrieval requests being checked against a user's authorization before results resolve — the same permission-aware retrieval architecture described in the Nucleus One case study. A control lets you switch which user is asking (Engineer or Guest) and see a different subset of records authorized each time.

Associate Software Engineer, Acme One — internship converted early to full-time

Sole engineer, Project-One module — database through frontend

Ranked second by commit volume across both platform repositories

The argument

Nucleus One needed a chatbot that couldn't become a way around its own permission model. RepoWarden needed a review agent that couldn't write to disk it hadn't been authorized to touch. Project-Ease needs one law firm's matters kept out of another's results, enforced server-side rather than trusted from the client. The pattern is the same each time: he builds the boundary, not just the feature — the conventional software the intelligent system has to live inside is treated as part of the engineering problem, not as scaffolding around it.

Selected work

Experience

Over a year, continuous, at Acme One — a technology consulting and solutions provider building Nucleus One, a multi-module enterprise platform.

March 2026 – Present

Associate Software Engineer

Acme One · Lahore, Pakistan

  • Builds LangChain and LangGraph agentic pipelines inside Nucleus One: multi-step chains, tool-calling agents with custom tool definitions, stateful graphs, and human-in-the-loop approval steps, integrated with the platform’s ASP.NET Core 8 APIs and SQL Server data layer.
  • Implemented LiveKit voice agents for a real-time AI assistant on a construction-site management platform, building the agent-worker architecture that handles live audio streams and LLM-driven responses over WebRTC.
  • Sole engineer on the Project-One module, delivered end to end from SQL Server schema through ASP.NET Core 8 services to the React/TypeScript interface — ranked second by commit volume across both platform repositories on a seven-person team.
  • Authored the HR-One service layer and deployed its SQL Server schema; built the platform authentication controller (JWT, RBAC, secure sessions); shipped TimeTrace to production with its backend reporting engine.
  • Uses Azure AI Foundry for model management and evaluation, and runs Llama 3.1 locally through Ollama for offline inference and pipeline testing.

Artificial Intelligence Intern

Acme One · Lahore, Pakistan

  • Engineered and deployed a permission-aware Retrieval-Augmented Generation chatbot into Nucleus One’s production environment, owned from prototype through go-live.
  • Improved retrieval grounding through prompt engineering and iteration on chunking strategy and embedding configuration.
  • Built and evaluated NLP and text-classification models in Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn), then deployed the selected sentiment model behind REST endpoints in a production web application.
