About
MHMalik Hamza Shabbir
Full-Stack & AI Engineer
Pakistan (remote, works globally)
I build production AI products, agents and RAG systems, and the full-stack web and mobile apps they live in.
I am a full-stack and AI engineer with five years of experience, and I have shipped eight SaaS products that are live today plus two apps on both app stores. I build the application and the AI inside it as one system: the RAG pipeline, the agents and the voice layer, alongside the schema, the billing and the deploy. Most of my work is for founders and small teams in Europe and the US who need one engineer who can own a product from an idea to something their customers pay for. I care about the parts that only show up in production: the retry that is idempotent, the guardrail that refuses instead of guessing, and the monitor that tells you before your users do.

Experience
AI & Full-Stack Software Engineer · Marketlytics
Lahore, Pakistan
Build production AI SaaS end to end for one of Sweden's leading SEO consultancies and its clients. Built the agentic content and SEO platform where blog generation, cross-platform review replies and AI rank tracking each run as a tool an agent can call, on Express, MySQL and Cloud Tasks. Led Responsly, an autonomous Google reviews responder, with two junior developers reporting to me: per-location Stripe billing, multi-account Google OAuth, and a rule that every degraded AI path refuses rather than publishes. Shipped Skimming, a multi-tenant RAG workspace over video and documents using LanceDB and four models behind LiteLLM, and a cold-email engine running thirty mailboxes at their real ceiling with an AI reply classifier behind it.
