About Me
Full-stack developer with over 10 years of experience building web applications and AI systems.
I'm Ali Rehman, a full-stack developer based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with over 10 years of experience building web applications, AI systems, and data platforms for businesses across multiple industries.
My journey into programming started in 2011 when I wrote my first computer program during my first year of university. I fell in love with web and software development almost immediately. While studying, I taught myself web development and started working on my own startup—a Pinterest-like platform for words instead of pictures. I was so passionate about it that I left university in my third year to focus on building it full-time. The startup didn't succeed, but it set me on a path of building software that I've been on ever since.
Today, my work spans intelligent data systems, e-commerce platforms, analytics infrastructure, and enterprise automation. I enjoy solving complex technical problems—whether it's optimizing billion-row database queries, building configurable AI agent platforms, or architecting analytics systems that drive real business decisions.
I believe in building software that's not just functional, but maintainable, scalable, and designed to evolve with business needs. I work with teams globally, contributing to projects ranging from blockchain analytics to healthcare systems, always with a focus on delivering measurable value.
Technical Approach
Principles that guide my development process and ensure successful project outcomes.
Start with the business problem, not the technology
Understanding the core problem drives better technical decisions and ensures solutions deliver real value.
Build for scale and maintainability from day one
Architecture decisions made early have lasting impact. Clean, modular design enables growth.
Optimize for performance without sacrificing code quality
Fast systems built on solid foundations. Performance is a feature, not an afterthought.
Prioritize production reliability over experimental features
Systems that work reliably in production earn trust and enable continuous improvement.
