Computer Engineer & AI Solutions Developer
Safwan Hossain
I believe in learning things deeply. Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast. I like to leverage my skills in hardware and software to build things useful to me and others.
I learned to build at the intersection of hardware and software while studying Computer Engineering, built fullstack web apps and data migration pipelines in my previous role, and am currently pursuing a Graduate Certificate in Applied AI Solutions Development.
About Me
Background and technical skills
I hold a B.Eng. in Computer Engineering from Toronto Metropolitan University and am currently completing a Graduate Certificate in Applied AI Solutions Development at George Brown College. My work spans full-stack web development, embedded systems, and machine learning. I enjoy bridging the gap between low-level hardware and high-level application design.
