Hey 👋 my name is Ajwad Shaikh. I'm a software engineer keen to design, build, solve, and democratize technology for the next billion internet users one commit at a time. I go by the pronouns 'he/him'. Some brief history, I was born and brought up in the city of dreams, Mumbai. After graduating high-school in sciences, I moved to Jabalpur, a quiet town in central India, to pursue my undergrad degree in Computer Science & Engineering from IIITDM Jabalpur in 2017. Somehow through waves of unrests and pandemics, I did graduate with decent grades, great memories, and lifelong friendships in May 2021. I have since worked with Amazon, building on their address intelligence and lately been working with TranZact, developing a platform to digitise processes and catalyse growth for Indian SMEs. As an engineer, I aspire to build solutions that empower people, not just businesses. When I'm not solving problems, I like to pounce on buzzers in quizzes or, on blue-moons, pen opinionated poetry. Alhamdulillah, I am currently positioned in a satisfactory role and not looking for a change. However, I am always looking for meaningful ways to support underprivileged communities, in tech or otherwise. I can listen, observe, share, talk, understand, and do. Reach out for anything and everything, and I shall do my bit, Inshallah. Apart from that, my inbox is open to quiz fundae, poetry snippets, communist manifestos, quality dank memes, or even a simple 'hi'! Drop a message and I'll reply within a day or two.
