Ali Nahhas - Product Manager, AI Engineer, and Software Architect

About me

PM by instinct.Dev by practice.AI by obsession.

I’m Ali, a product manager and a software architect with a master’s degree in artificial intelligence.

I’m most useful where the idea is unclear, when the deadline is yesterday, and when the team is stretched thin and everyone is freaking out :)
