I build backend systems.
Now I'm teaching them
to run themselves.
Aqif Ahmed — final-year Software Engineering student in Lahore. My foundation is Python, FastAPI, and PostgreSQL. I'm pointing that at AI automation: agents and workflows that take repetitive work off someone's plate for good.
01 — About
I'm completing my BSSE at the University of Central Punjab. My final-year project, Velocity Motorsports, is a car-import portal for overseas Pakistanis — async job queues, generated shipping documents, the kind of backend work that has to actually hold up under real use.
That's the base I'm building on. AI automation is where I'm putting my energy now: using LLMs and orchestration to turn manual, multi-step work into something that runs on its own. It's the part of this field that's both the most interesting problem to solve and the most useful thing I can offer someone paying for it.
Ships, doesn't just demo
Three finished projects, not tutorials — each one solves a real, specific problem end to end.
Backend-first thinking
Automation is only as good as the system underneath it — that's the part I already know how to build well.
Learning in public
The roadmap below is real and unfinished on purpose — you're seeing the direction, not a polished afterthought.
02 — Journey
How I got to backend + automation.
Started BSSE at UCP
Foundations in CS and software engineering — data structures, OS internals, socket programming in C.
Went deep on backend
FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Docker, Celery/Redis. Shipped Net Zero and the GitHub Search Engine using this stack.
Velocity Motorsports — FYP defence
Final-year project, defended. My largest system to date: async processing, generated documents, real users in mind.
Pivoting into AI automation
Learning LangChain, n8n, and RAG — building the three projects in the roadmap below to prove it, not just claim it.

— Roadmap
What I'm building next, in AI automation.
Three projects chosen because they're workflows people actually pay for — and because each one extends the backend stack I already build with.
