My own products

Four years,
wrapped

The short version, in my own voice: the teams, the products, and what I build. Tap it for sound.

  • I’m Malik Sohaib. Give me an idea, and I’ll hand you back a product.
  • Four years of shipping software, and 5,582 contributions on GitHub since 2022, across my work and personal accounts.
  • I’ve built for a US education nonprofit, a solar engineering company in Lahore, and Arthur in Germany, where I’m now a senior engineer.
  • Products of my own: EzVenda, with a real merchant selling through it; Mini Havoc, with hundreds of game sessions played; GymPaid, built in two days.
  • Web apps, real-time games, AI agents, and tools for your business. From the idea to production, every layer.

Owned end to end

Three products I took from the idea up, and that people use: EzVenda has a real merchant selling through it, Mini Havoc has hosted hundreds of game sessions, and GymPaid is going to its first gym. I wrote down every decision along the way, so each case study shows what I chose and why.
