Senior Software Engineer · Mobile & Full Stack · AI-Assisted Delivery

Thirteen years of Android, iOS, cross-platform and full-stack delivery for enterprise and government clients in Dubai and Lahore — bilingual e-services portals, correspondence systems, e-commerce and on-demand platforms — over 20 apps and games built and submitted to the App Store and Google Play across my career. Building games is a personal interest of mine, published under the BigInt label — nine titles live on Google Play and the App Store (750,000+ downloads), seven of them shipped in 2026, where I am the only engineer: I own the payments and subscriptions, the identity and cloud-save layer, the privacy and consent compliance, and the release pipeline for both stores. Product-minded, hands-on, and comfortable owning a release from the first line of code to the store page.

AI-Assisted Engineering in Practice

How I use AI tooling on my independent projects to ship faster without lowering the bar

Agentic development

I pair with AI coding tools (Claude Code, Copilot, Cursor) through whole features: spec → implementation → headless build → device test — and own the product decisions, architecture and verification on real phones.

Render-and-look QA

Every build captures every screen headlessly; an agent reviews the screenshots against the mockups before anything reaches a device. Caught dozens of layout bugs no asset check would.

AI art with hard gates

Generated backgrounds, sprites and animation sheets pass programmatic checks — dedupe, scale-lock, spoiler and text scans — before they are allowed into a build.

Localization at scale

A full game UI and 60 authored story cases in 10 languages, using AI translation with pilot-first machine validation gates.

Growth engineering

A generated 130-page SEO site with structured data, hreflang and sitemaps, store-listing sheets for both stores, GA4/UTM attribution and Search Console.

AI inside the product

Gemini-powered food scanning — calories and macros from a photo — shipped to a 750K-download app with a Premium subscription.

Personal interest · 9 live
  • Nine titles shipped and maintained on Google Play and the App Store as a personal interest — sole engineer on product, code, back end, payments, release engineering and store operations
  • 2026 line-up: Agent X, Rope Blast, Pop Valley, Brick Broke, Puck Clash, Cannon Valley and Blockery — seven titles shipped in a single year alongside my full-time role
  • Payments and billing: Play Billing and StoreKit 2 across the catalogue — consumables, non-consumables and auto-renewing subscriptions, receipt validation, entitlement restore, and cross-platform purchase state that survives a reinstall or a device change
  • Identity and account recovery: anonymous-first auth upgraded to Sign in with Apple or Google, account linking across platforms, and conflict-aware cloud save — a merge that reconciles two devices offline for a week without losing either side
  • Compliance: ATT then UMP consent in the order Apple requires, non-personalised ads on refusal, Play Data Safety and Apple privacy declarations, and an in-app route to erase every byte a user owns
  • Agent X — daily murder-mystery in ten languages with 60 authored cases, a hosted content pipeline, recorded narration generated offline, and local come-back notifications; analysed the live player funnel in Firestore and rebuilt the first session against it
  • Gym Workout: AI Diet & Planner — 750,000+ downloads; Gemini-powered food scanning from a photo, plan generator, Premium subscription plus lifetime unlock
  • Release engineering: headless Unity builds for both platforms, a capture harness that screenshots every screen in every language and asserts against expectations before a build is allowed out, and a build guard that refuses to produce a store binary configured with test ad units
  • bigintgames.com — generated site with per-title pages, device-aware store links, localized content, structured data and Search Console verification

Featured Projects

Live on the stores — independent titles first, then client work

Agent X: Detective - Independent

Daily murder-mystery game: 60 authored cases, three suspects to interrogate, a self-writing notebook, seasons with medals and an informant hint chat — in 10 languages, with a live cloud content pipeline. Built solo in 2026 with AI-assisted tooling.

Cannon Valley · Puck Clash · Brick Broke - Independent

Three independent games on both stores: a faithful-then-modernized remake of a classic tower defense, a sling-puck arcade table, and a neon brick-breaker with 120 levels and collectible paddles. Unity, Firebase, AdMob, IAP, cloud save.

Rope Blast · Pop Valley - Independent

Two 2026 titles. Rope Blast: a physics arcade game with a 120-level campaign, an endless mode with a draft of mutations, and two-player co-op over the network — plus a WebGL build embedded on the site. Pop Valley: a 200-level bubble shooter across ten worlds. Both with cloud save, consent-aware ads and a full store pipeline.

Stablecoin Checkout Lab - Self-directed, 2026

A stablecoin payment flow built from first principles on an EVM chain: a customer signs an EIP-712 order off-chain, a merchant backend verifies the signature, settles it in an ERC-20 via approve/transferFrom, refuses to settle the same authorization twice, pre-flights allowance and balance before spending gas, and reconciles its own ledger against the chain's Transfer logs. Includes a hand-written 6-decimal ERC-20 and five runnable lessons — keys and signatures, transaction anatomy, on-chain settlement, token mechanics, and the checkout itself. Runs entirely on a local chain; no mainnet, no custody of anyone's keys.
