Senior Product Engineer (UI/UX + Frontend) | Founder of Sequo, 3,000+ monthly visitors

Based in: Lahore, PakistanCurrently: Senior Software Engineer, MotiveExperience: 8 years

Senior engineer with 8+ years across React, React Native, Next.js and TypeScript, and a founder's mindset. I designed, built and launched Sequo, a free multiplayer Sequence game, on my own. A few months after launch it gets 3,000+ monthly visitors and 30,000 monthly views. I own all of it: UI/UX, frontend, backend, analytics, SEO and growth. I bring the same ownership to my day jobs. At Motive I architected the first onboarding experience for the Workforce product. At Kollegio AI I was tech lead, cut the build from 11 MB to 1.59 MB and shipped features that lifted engagement 50%. I do my best work on small teams where I can take a product from idea to design to shipped.

What drives the work

Motivations: Owning a product end to end, from the first sketch to real people using it
Seeing real usage numbers move because of something I shipped
Objectives: Join an early-stage team as a founding engineer and own the product experience from design to shipped frontend.
Principles: Act like an owner. If something is broken, it is mine to fix
Ship early, watch how people use it, then fix what the data shows
Design and code are one job. How it feels matters as much as how it is built
