About me

Hey, I'm Zohaib.

Senior Software Engineer by day. Curious mind, always. I write about tech, code, politics, finance, and the ideas shaping the world — because great thinking doesn't live in silos. My interests are Tech & Gadgets, Philosophy & Ideas, learning about Finance, World, Culture, Language, etc.

Who I am

I work as a Senior Software Engineer full time, with a background that sits at the intersection of building things and understanding them deeply. Over the years I've led engineering teams, shipped products at scale, and picked up a habit I can't shake: reading everything I can get my hands on. I love to travel - been to only 9 countries so far haha - love to meet new people hear their stories, try different food, see different cultures, the world really surprises me and also inspires me.

I grew up with a taste for big cities, bold ideas, and the kind of conversations that leave you thinking for days. This blog is my attempt to have those conversations in public.

Why I decided to start this blog

I believe the best engineers are also great thinkers — and great thinkers stay curious far beyond their domain. This is a space where I share what I'm learning, what I'm building, what I'm watching in the world, and what's making me think. If any of it sparks something for you, I'd love to hear it.
