Sadiq Raza
I build intelligent systems — machine-learning pipelines, autonomous AI agents, and the real-time infrastructure that feeds them. My work sits where AI meets cybersecurity, with a decade's worth of side-quests through full-stack web and blockchain along the way.
//background
I teach software to reason over the real world.
I'm an AI developer. Most of my day is spent teaching software to reason over messy, real-world signals — language, telemetry, network traffic — and to act on what it finds.
Right now I'm the Research Officer for AI at PAF Cyber Command, where my job is to make sure artificial intelligence is genuinely leveraged across the team's work, not bolted on. Before that I engineered real-time analytics systems at NASTP and shipped AI, blockchain, and web products at Alphabase.
I care about clean, modular, well-documented code, and about systems that hold up when they meet real data and real users.
const philosophy = "clean, documented, modular";

//selected work
Things I've built
A few systems I'm proud of — from autonomous security agents to a billing platform that runs in production.
//the archive
And a pile of other things
Side projects, experiments, and tools built along the way.
RAG Chatbot Platform
A retrieval-augmented chatbot with its own backend and frontend, wired into a document knowledge base.
Health Plan Generator
An AI healthcare-plan generator with a self-evaluation loop that critiques and improves its own output.
Novel-to-EPUB Automator
Resume-safe web scraping that compiles web novels into EPUBs and emails them when they're done. Dockerized end to end.
Zenith Reader
A full-stack web-novel reader shipped across web and Android from a single codebase.
DeFi & Balancer Tooling
Real-time mempool trackers and Balancer protocol experiments — arbitrage strategies and on-chain data parsing.
Resource Dashboard
GPU, CPU, and memory monitoring for the ML workstations behind the heavier AI projects.
