About Me

Profile picture

I'm Bilal (Not Ahmed), and this is my portfolio (obviously). I make things, and I break things. I have a severe case of shiny object syndrome, and I'm trying to cure it by building things. What I can do, I do, and what I can't do, I learn. This approach has allowed me to explore a lot of different technologies and tools, and I'm always looking for new challenges.

I’m currently a Software Developer at Indigo AI. When I joined, the tech stack was unfamiliar, but I dove in headfirst and quickly got up to speed with both the technology and the industry. I’m always looking for opportunities to learn, experiment, and build meaningful things.
