Hello, I'm Ayaz. Nice to meet you.

Since beginning my journey as a software engineer 4 years ago, I have done an intership at a startup, worked as a consulting member working on deploying an NLP, and collaborated with my peers to create a trading algorithm. I am naturally curious, and perpetually working on improving my coding skills every single day.

Working with Ayaz on Gifted was absolutely a great experience. He stood out immediately because of his curiosity and willingness to learn. Before joining our team, Ayaz had little to no experience with Swift and iOS Programming. Despite this, he was able to learn everything from scratch and, with hours of dedication, he was able to catch up to the rest of the team rather quickly. Whenever he got stuck on a problem, Ayaz was always eager to tackle it himself. At the same time, he never shied away from asking questions, which helped him be embraced by the team and learn quickly. Pretty excited to work with Ayaz on another project soon!
