Hi, I’m Hamza. Since I was 13, I’ve been fascinated by coding and problem-solving, always eager to
explore how AI can be used to address real-world challenges. I thrive on tackling complex problems
and turning them into scalable, efficient solutions.
For me, technology is more than just improving efficiency—it’s about shaping the future. I believe
that AI holds the key to solving some of the world’s most pressing challenges, from eliminating
inefficiencies to unlocking new opportunities. My goal is to be part of the AI revolution that
propels humanity into an era of abundance, where intelligent systems empower people to reach their
fullest potential and drive meaningful progress.
I’m always looking for like-minded collaborators and curious minds to join me on this journey. Let’s
connect, exchange ideas, and explore how we can contribute to the future of AI. Feel free to reach
out, or subscribe to my updates as I continue to share insights, projects, and aspirations along the
way.
About Me
I thrive in fast-paced environments where adaptability and problem-solving are key. Having worked at
both large corporations and startups, I’ve gained a deep understanding of how to navigate different
work cultures and drive impactful results.
My passion lies in artificial intelligence. I believe AI has the potential to transform the world and
usher in an era of abundance. My ultimate goal is to play a key role in shaping AI-driven technology
that not only enhances efficiency but also improves lives, unlocks human potential, and contributes
to a future where innovation benefits everyone. I want to be part of the movement that ensures AI is
developed responsibly, ethically, and with the power to uplift humanity.
Beyond work, I love rock climbing, staying up to date with the latest advancements in technology, and
spending time with family. I deeply value hard work, equality, and honesty, and I bring these
principles into everything I do.
Projects Overview
IsenGuard AI
IsenGuard AI is a state-of-the-art security and monitoring system powered by advanced artificial
intelligence, designed to elevate both digital and physical safety through intelligent
automation.
By harnessing the latest in AI and cloud technologies, IsenGuard AI delivers real-time threat
detection, automated response capabilities, and smooth integration with enterprise security
infrastructures. Due to the success of our project we were selected for an interview with Y
Combinator for the Fall 2024 Batch. The code could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/IsenguardAI
Optimx AI
Optimx AI is an innovative project management tool designed to streamline the task management
process by automating the creation of Jira tickets for project managers. By monitoring
communication channels such as Slack and Zoom transcripts, OptimxAI identifies actionable items
and asynchronously generates Jira tickets, significantly enhancing efficiency and productivity
for teams. The tool has garnered substantial interest, securing a coveted interview with
YCombinator, and attracting over 780 demo sign-ups. Moreover, it has successfully onboarded 150+
project managers from prestigious companies, including Microsoft, for its initial trial. Due to the success of our project we were selected for an interview with Y
Combinator for the Winter 2024 Batch. Discover the potential of OptimxAI by viewing the demo video here and

Athena AI
Athena AI, our project submission for TreeHacks 2024, marks a significant milestone as we
celebrate the 10th anniversary of TreeHacks, the annual hackathon hosted by Stanford University.
Inspired by the common student dilemma of finding time to watch lengthy educational videos,
AthenaAI introduces Athena and Minerva, two revolutionary AI-powered tools designed to maximize
the utility of educational content. AthenaAI leverages advanced technologies to provide a
centralized AI-powered repository for educational media, enabling users to efficiently navigate
through vast amounts of information and focus on the essential parts of their learning
materials. Athena, developed as a full-stack application, and Minerva, a powerful FastAPI
backend, work in tandem to facilitate intelligent document querying and topic-specific searches
within videos. Our solution not only enhances productivity but also empowers users to manage,
explore, and engage with their content in a time-efficient manner. With a robust tech stack
including Next.js, Convex, Bun, Langchain, and OpenAI GPT-3.5 Turbo, AthenaAI represents a leap
forward in educational technology, offering a glimpse into the future of personalized learning
and content management. The report could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/AthenaAI
Forex
Currency conversion fees are usually considered to be unavoidable. But due to the amount of money
exchanged globally between different currencies, traders could easily exchange the money
directly between themselves, thus avoiding the conversion fees. This website is where people
would post what currencies they have and which ones they desire. Once a match is found they meet
up and trade. The code could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/Forex
Citadel DataOpen Report
The East-Coast Dataopen hosted by Citadel and Correlation One is an invite-only Datathon
featuring university students across the east coast. The event started on the 21st of March and
ended on the 28th, lasting about a whole week. I was in a team of two where we analyzed the
non-conventional indicators and instigators of traffic. We posed the following question: "How
would investments in businesses and education affect traffic and road safety in major American
cities?" In this report, we analyzed datasets and later created recommendations for which
non-conventional areas municipal governments should invest in to reduce traffic congestion. The
three cities of focus were New York, NY, Austin, TX, and Washington, DC. We analyzed publicly
available data on 311 calls, building permits, business licenses, population education level,
and traffic congestion statistics. The report could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/Citadel-Datathon
OpenCare
In many parts of the world, healthcare inaccessibility is a significant problem, especially for
marginalized communities such as low-income individuals, ethnic minorities, and those living in
rural areas.
This app allows for accessible healthcare based on an online Q&A for medical advice and is a
valuable tool for people who have limited access to healthcare services. This app could provide
users with a platform to ask medical questions and receive answers from qualified healthcare
professionals.
The app has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for users to navigate and find the
information they need. To use the app, users input their medical questions, and the app would
match them with qualified healthcare professionals who are best equipped to provide an accurate
answer. The healthcare professionals could include doctors, nurses, and other medical
professionals.
The Q&A feature could also include a search function that allows users to look up previously
asked questions and answers. This could be particularly helpful for people who have common
medical conditions and want to learn more about managing their symptoms.
In addition to the Q&A feature, this app also has an upvote and downvote feature allowing expert
professionals to be able to critique others' opinions allowing for a more targeted response to
ensure the best type of care possible is provided to the patient. This app could help bridge the
gap between patients and medical professionals and provide users with the information they need
to manage their health. The report could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/OpenCare
Amazon Customer Reviews Scraper
This web scraping project would download amazon reviews using scrapy and its built-in files. To
choose which product to download go into reviews.py in spiders and change the values in the list
of ASIN numbers to the products you would like to download. Then run the program in the command
prompt. The code for the project could be seen on the following GitHub link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/Amazon-Reviews-Scraper
Vaccinator
I had built a game based on Space Invaders with a Covid-19 spin on it. It was a solo project
submitted to Hack-cade, a hackathon hosted by MLH. The project was made using python with the
following modules: pygame, os, time, and random. The code could be seen on the following GitHub
link: https://github.com/zaman-hamza/Vaccinator
