WORK

Machine Learning Intern

Orbin

Lahore, Pakistan

Built an AI-assisted automation pipeline to stitch multiple drone-captured panorama images into a single high-resolution composite, applying image alignment, feature matching, and stitching logic. Improved robustness for noisy drone imagery by handling overlap inconsistencies and perspective variation, applying computer vision and ML concepts to a real-world geospatial imaging problem.

Suicide Rate Analysis & Prediction (Data Science)

Data Analyst

Analyzed 30+ years of data across 180+ countries (WHO, World Bank, UNDP HDI) to test how economic crises affect suicide rates, building regression models and running hypothesis tests in Python (pandas, NumPy, statsmodels, scipy). Found high inflation a significant predictor of rising rates two years later (p = 0.003).

Cosmos Discovery – Campus Event Platform (Android)

Lead Backend & Recommendation Engine Developer

Owned the event services and Discover feed, implementing event creation/management and a real-time RSVP flow over Firestore snapshot listeners with optimistic updates and rollback on failure. Designed and built the content-based recommendation engine that ranks events by category and tag overlap with each student's RSVP history, with exclusion rules and a popularity-based fallback. Backed by JUnit and Espresso tests and a GitHub Actions CI pipeline.

Seekho Sikhao – AI Learning Companion (HCI, CS466)

Lead Designer & Developer

Led the human-centered design lifecycle for a bilingual (Urdu/English) AI tutoring tool for low-SES Pakistani classrooms, running focus groups, teacher interviews, and task-based field sessions, then translating findings into system requirements. Designed the UI/UX, including voice-enabled Urdu responses and a split-screen workbook that prompts students to attempt problems before revealing scaffolded hints, iterating through paper, Figma, and React prototypes. Built the Wizard-of-Oz testing prototype (TypeScript/React, deployed on Vercel), driving development with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Codex) via structured Markdown specs and context/memory management.
