Portrait of Ali Shan

Ali Shan

I grew up in Gilgit and now live in Islamabad, where I’m completing my software engineering degree at SZABIST. I build web apps, backend systems, and AI tools.

I’m a Product Engineer at 100xBetter.ai. I started in frontend development, learned through client projects, and now mostly work with Node.js, Python, and PostgreSQL.

I have a lot of intrusive ideas, and engineering is how I let them loose. Right now, I’m building GoodData for my final year project and exploring what engineering looks like when agents do most of the typing.

Away from the keyboard, I like hiking in the Karakoram in summer. You can find my work on GitHub, find me on X and LinkedIn, or reach me by email.
