Independent AI Researcher & Founder, Codoplex

I build production AI systems — large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, and agentic architectures — and research how to make them more reliable. Published in Neural Processing Letters. Currently pursuing doctoral research opportunities in AI/ML.

About

I hold a BSc in Telecommunications Engineering (UET Taxila) and an MSc in Computer Science with a specialization in AI and Deep Learning (University of Gujrat). My MSc thesis proposed a gated recurrent neural network architecture for text classification, later published in Neural Processing Letters (Hassan & Shoaib, 2020) after peer review.

Over a decade of software engineering, I’ve moved from full-stack web development into building production systems around large language models — retrieval-augmented generation, multi-agent orchestration, fine-tuning, and multi-backend inference infrastructure — as founder of Codoplex. I’m now applying that practitioner’s perspective to doctoral-level research in AI/ML.

Research Focus

🧠

Agentic AI Systems

Multi-agent orchestration, tool-use, and inter-agent communication for complex, multi-step tasks.

🔎

Retrieval-Augmented Generation

Grounding LLM outputs in retrieved context to reduce hallucination and improve reliability.

⚙️

Efficient Adaptation

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning (LoRA/PEFT) and multi-backend inference routing for cost and reliability.

Technical Writings

From Zero to Agents — self-published two-volume technical course (Leanpub, 2026). A from-first-principles AI/ML curriculum covering foundational mathematics through transformers, fine-tuning, and agentic systems, with every implementation independently derived and empirically verified.
