• Lead development of a modular, tenant-configurable mobile app with clean, testable code. • Architect and implement the Firebase Backend-for-Frontend using TypeScript/Node.js Cloud Functions. • Route authenticated user requests to Azure financial services via Cloud Functions. • Secure HTTP Cloud Functions to catch Azure webhooks and update Firestore state. • Design high-performance, denormalized Firestore schemas for real-time UI updates; manage Firebase Auth and enforce strict Firestore/Storage security rules. • Manage Firebase Cloud Storage for user document handling (KYC/statements) and Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) for push notifications. • Serve as the technical lead for mobile and BFF platforms, driving scalability, security, and maintainability. • Maintain JSON/asset theme engines for white-labeling and use Terraform (IaC) to automate isolated Firebase project deployment. • Build a plug-and-play feature architecture so tenants can easily enable or disable specific app capabilities. • Define coding standards, state management patterns (Riverpod/Bloc), and conduct code reviews to mentor mid/junior engineers. • Maintain automated CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/Codemagic) and collaborate with Product/Azure teams on API contracts and technical roadmaps.

• Automation & Test Engineering: Build and maintain automation infrastructures for Laravel backends and Moodle integrations using Pest, PHPUnit, Playwright, or Cypress. • AI Validation: Formulate strategies to test AI-centric features, including grading engines, response latency, and personalized learning trajectories. • CI/CD Integration: Embed test coverage, quality gates, and automated release controls into GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, or Azure DevOps. • Performance & Reliability: Support load testing to handle massive student traffic volumes, and use observability tools (Grafana, New Relic) to monitor system health. • Architecture Collaboration: Review technical designs and define testing approaches for LTI integrations, custom Moodle plugins, and external partner APIs.

• PHP & Laravel Development: Write clean, testable, and modular features using PHP 8.x and Laravel that can be programmatically toggled per tenant/institution. • Moodle Core Integration: Build and maintain the application abstraction layer connecting custom tenant features with Moodle core database models and Web Services APIs. • Multi-Tenant Architecture: Implement robust database isolation, data separation rules, and permission layers to ensure total security of student records across differing organisations. • Performance Optimisation: Optimise database schemas and queries (MySQL/PostgreSQL) and implement high-performance caching layers (Redis/Memcached) to minimise database locks during high-traffic exam or registration periods. • Integrations & Standards: Build secure RESTful APIs and webhooks to connect the LMS with Student Information Systems (SIS) and localised payment gateways using EdTech standards like LTI, SCORM, or xAPI. • Codebase Stewardship: Adhere to engineering standards, design patterns, and testing protocols across the PHP ecosystem while participating in regular code reviews.

• UX Research & Frameworks: Conduct user research within learner and educator demographics. Create personas, map user journeys, and work with user stories to optimise digital learning workflows. • Human-AI Interaction Design: Shape the UX for cutting-edge features like AI tutor chat interfaces, smart nudges, and teacher copilots. • Wireframing & Prototyping: Build low-fidelity wireframes and high-fidelity mockups in Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD, and develop interactive prototypes using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. • Data Visualisation: Design engaging dashboards and visualisations based on educational data, predictive learning analytics, and student retention models. • LMS Customisation: Create custom graphics, assets, and themes to enhance wireframes and virtual learning environments.

• Coordinate with Ministry representatives and District Education Officers to secure project endorsements. • Translate complex AI performance data into accessible impact stories and executive briefs for senior leadership. • Oversee interactive workshops and field roadshows across urban and rural sectors. • Build trust with parents and school committees using accessible communication tools, such as WhatsApp and localised narratives. • Develop tailored messaging in Urdu and regional dialects.

• End-to-End Delivery: Guide software squads to successfully build and deliver a brand-new EdTech platform for our client. • Commercial & Budget Management: Maintain total visibility over programme affordability, budgeting, and overall profitability. • Stakeholder & Senior Relations: Manage communication and alignment with senior client executives and senior representatives, confidently handling pushback and challenging sceptics. • Tracking & ELT Reporting: Use agile tools to track progress and report clear, data-driven KPIs directly to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT). • Delivery Coordination: Overcome delivery blockers and manage dependencies across squads.
