Daniyal Hassan

Hey! I’m Daniyal. I build distributed systems and ship production AI that real people use every day.
Daniyal Hassan — LLM Engineering Architect
Here’s a bit more detail…

I love designing, building, and scaling systems end to end: distributed backends, fault-tolerant payments, and applied AI. Over the last six years I architected a multi-tenant, multi-geo core-banking and lending platform serving ~1M users at CreditBook, and most recently took AI learning products from prototype to production at MindMax: agentic pipelines, RAG, memory, and real-time voice.

I do my best work on small, fast-moving teams where I can own outcomes end to end and iterate fast. Right now I’m a Principal Software Engineer at MindMax in Dubai, and open to remote roles.

Where I’ve worked
  • At MindMax (Principal Software Engineer, since 2025) I own our AI learning products end to end. I build the agentic pipelines on LangGraph, the RAG retrieval and long-term memory that keep them grounded, and the real-time voice stack on LiveKit. I also cut our infrastructure cost by about 4× with Terraform.
  • At CreditBook (Staff Engineer & Technical Lead, 2021–2025) I architected Credr, a multi-tenant, multi-geo core banking and lending platform serving ~1M users, along with the payment pipeline and Embedded Wallet behind it (idempotent ledgers, real-time balances, and bank-network integrations). I owned the architecture and technical direction, leading a team of 6 I built while staying hands-on throughout.
  • At Educative (Software Engineer, 2021) I built microservices for the code-execution engine, test-driven, across frontend and backend.
  • At Hoo Controls (Software Engineer, part-time, 2021) I built a Linux desktop kernel app in Go that orchestrated core services for smart-home devices, with a private-Docker-registry update protocol for atomic, rollback-safe deployments.
  • At Elixir Technologies (Software Engineer, 2019–2020) I was the sole developer of a distributed monitoring and reporting tool for the Tango microservice suite, with heartbeat-based health tracking across nodes and a system-tray GUI. Built in C++, Rust, and C#.
  • At Center for Advanced Research in Engineering (Software Engineer, 2019) I co-built an inventory-management system, architecting the Rust and PostgreSQL backend and a Svelte frontend with barcode generation, role-based access, and real-time dashboards.
Some of my projects
  • Vexr — “remember everything.” An AI memory assistant that lives in WhatsApp: capture and recall anything just by chatting.
  • FoodBook — a community food-review platform: discover restaurants and share reviews with photos and video, across iOS, Android, and a restaurant portal.
  • Casket — a multi-tenant car-rental management SaaS (invoicing, notifications, analytics & reporting); in production with a rental company in Pakistan.
  • Augur — live gold rates for Pakistan: trends, forecasts, and a Zakat calculator.
Skills
  • Languages — TypeScript / Node, Go, Rust, Python, C++.
  • Frameworks — React / Next, React Native, Svelte, Express, Nest, Fastify, Chi (Go).
  • AI — LangGraph & agentic systems, RAG, AI memory, real-time voice (LiveKit), embeddings & vector DBs (pgvector), evals & tracing (LangSmith / Langfuse).
  • Data — PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, MySQL, DynamoDB.
  • Infrastructure — AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD.
  • Architecture — microservices, distributed systems, event-driven, domain-driven design.
Education
  • FAST – National University of Computer and Emerging Sciences — BS Computer Science, 2017–2021. Gold Medalist, graduated Summa Cum Laude (CGPA 3.90/4.0).
  • Beaconhouse School System (BMI) — A-Levels, Physics & Computer Science, 2015–2017. Gold Medalist (perfect 4.00 GPA).
