Agentic AI Engineer | Multi-Agent Systems Architect | Enterprise AI Strategist

Bridging AI potential with financial services reality through orchestration, compliance, and scalable adoption.

Professional Summary

Agentic AI Engineer building multi-agent systems for regulated industries, backed by 25+ years of operating a manufacturing business. Most agentic pilots in financial services die at the compliance review — not because the models are weak, but because a system that cannot show why it reached a conclusion cannot be signed off by a second line of defence. My work makes that reviewable: typed orchestration with an auditable route, a written constitution with a deterministic layer that needs no model, and evaluation that reads the execution trace rather than trusting the prose.

Founder of Texcot Embroidery Sourcing House and creator of the Textile ERP Platform, targeting fabric mills, CMT units and garment exporters across Faisalabad, Sialkot, Gujranwala, Karachi and Lahore — so the domain intelligence is built from inside an industry rather than modelled from outside one. Completed 6 consecutive Panaversity Hackathons (Bronze → Silver → Silver → Gold → Platinum → Agent Factory), each build carrying the last one forward.

Agentic AI Mastery

Twelve competencies, four categories. Each cites the path that demonstrates it.

Flagship Projects

21 open-source platforms, one per problem domain

21 multi-agent platforms, each with its own FastAPI gateway, Helm chart, test suite and public repository — reference implementations running on synthetic domain data. 736 test functions across the 21 repositories, counted from source on 2026-09-10; 6 of them run those tests in CI. All open source.

Professional Experience

Founder & CEO, CMT Stitching Operations

Texcot Embroidery Sourcing House

2020 – Present

Karachi, Pakistan

  • Engineered a multi-agent orchestration layer for financial-services research and Shari'ah screening, with separation of powers enforced structurally — no agent holds two of market data, weighting and verdict — rather than by prompt
  • Implemented MCP interoperability so agent capability is exposed as read-only tools on a protocol server, verified against a live client, instead of as bespoke HTTP endpoints
  • Architected deterministic guardrails from a written constitution, with a pattern layer that needs no model — verified blocking 4 of 4 violations with no model reachable, so enforcement survives a provider outage
  • Architected the Textile ERP Platform — order lifecycle, four auto-billing types, party ledgers and BOM inventory — to digitize Pakistan's textile value chain
  • Founded and operate a CMT stitching unit of 30–35 staff, running the full manufacturing lifecycle from sample fabric and design analysis through machine allocation, bulk production and inspection
  • Directed digital marketing across social channels, property portals and lead-generation funnels for textile and GCC real-estate clients

Marketing Manager

JK Embroidery

2016 – 2020

Karachi, Pakistan

  • Directed marketing and production planning for embroidery manufacturing operations
  • Engineered staff and equipment scheduling to clear production bottlenecks, implementing process improvements that held under peak order flow
  • Led a team of 30–35 staff, setting priorities against available resources and work-order flow

Country Manager / Buying Agent

Steven Berry

2003 – 2005

International

  • Managed and organized international shipments, providing clients guidance throughout procurement processes
