About
I wrote my first program at 12. I have not stopped since.
In 1997, I built a vegetable inventory system in GW-BASIC in my school computer lab. My father had lost his business when I was in 3rd class. There was no safety net. Everything I learned, I learned by doing.
The Corporate Years
After my Master's in Telecommunication from Iqra University Karachi, I moved into leadership — Director IT right after graduation, then National Manager IT at Faraz Foods and Best Foods, managing operations across all branches. I was climbing the corporate ladder. I was also building a hosting business on the side.
The Leap
In 2009, I quit. Walked away from a stable career and opened a shop in Jalil Town, Gujranwala. Rent: PKR 2,500/month. My brothers Zain and Faizan joined me. Three people, one room, and the conviction that we could build something that mattered.
Building Scale
We took on everything — networking, security, software, server management. In 2012, I registered PITS Pvt Ltd and won the Pakistan Army ISP project: towers and fiber across 72 units for 30 Corps. That changed our scale.
State Bank of Pakistan for security consulting. NADRA for network infrastructure. Pakistan Air Force for security systems. Standard Chartered through Chip Training & Consulting.
The Product Pivot
In 2017, I built 19 products — ERP, hospital management, WhatsApp automation, hosting, licensing. Some survived. Some I killed deliberately.
Today
Rapinova LLC in Wyoming. Then Dubai. Three countries, 30+ engineers. Every product funded by revenue, not investors. I still write code.
“I started at 12. I have not taken a break since. That is what it costs to build something real from nothing.”
