Hi, I'm Zaheed 👋
I understand business, not just code, and I build software that directly increases revenue, cuts operational costs, ensures regulatory compliance, and scales operations — for maritime giants, logistics operators, banks, EdTech startups, NGOs, e-commerce stores, and everything in between.
About
Over the last 5 years, I've delivered 15+ mission-critical products from scratch across 10 diverse industries, generating measurable ROI like 30–70% faster decisions, 40% less downtime, 3x user engagement, or new revenue streams. I collaborate with founders, CXOs, and investors to translate business challenges into reliable, scalable solutions shipped at high velocity.
