About

Hi, I’m Asghar. Ilead every build.

I’ve shipped software since 2017: Python backends first, then native iOS, then seven years at Zoho leading feature work on Zoho Vault. Nowasghar.pro puts that experience to work for clients — one engineer accountable for the product, from the first call to the release.
