- i build things.
- mostly the kind nobody sees — infrastructure, pipelines, the systems underneath the systems.
- i think the best software stays out of your way.
- i also think some problems don't get built for because the market's too small.
- halal investing is one of those problems.
- so i'm building Tijara.

JenkinsWhat I'm about.
I'm a Platform Engineer at Apple, working on large-scale Kubernetes infrastructure — the kind of systems that need to stay up when millions of people show up at once.
I grew up building things. Before engineering, I founded Marin CoWork — a coworking startup I took from zero to profitable. I wrote all the software: CRM, payments ($27M+ annually), analytics. I studied Electrical Engineering at San Francisco State University.
On the side, I'm building Tijara — a Shari'ah-compliant stock screening engine that validates equities against AAOIFI Islamic finance standards.
When I'm not building infrastructure, I'm building AI apps, bots, and skills in my personal AI lab — or at the mosque, or reading about markets and investing.
