Hasnaat
Malik.

Software Engineer building AI systems and full-stack products.

I build across the stack using TypeScript, Python, and Rust. I like taking things from a rough prototype to a product people can actually use.

Lately, I've been working on RAG systems, AI-assisted developer tools, and software for real-world workflows.

Outside of code, I shoot film.

01$whoami

Software engineer. Builder.
Occasionally behind a film camera.

I'm a Computer Science graduate from FAST-NUCES. Most of my work sits somewhere between software engineering and applied AI. I've built RAG applications, full-stack products, desktop software, and tools that use LLMs to work with existing code and data.

I care about the parts that make software actually useful: good APIs, reliable data, sensible architecture, useful interfaces, and systems that don't fall apart outside the demo.

When I'm not coding, I'm usually somewhere with a 35mm camera.

Notes from building things.

I write about software engineering, AI, systems I've worked on, things I've learned, and occasionally the problems that took much longer to solve than they should have.
