Summary
Anees Ahmed is a software engineer based in Tempe with a decade of experience delivering full-stack systems, APIs, and high-performance visualization tools, now contributing to Prime Video at Amazon. He blends production work with applied research—while at ASU he designed an FPGA accelerator for ZKP hash functions that outperformed server CPUs by 11x in throughput and cut power use dramatically, publishing at ICCAD 2024. His background spans building Electron-based cross-platform apps, multithreaded data parsers for millions of lidar points per second, and AI-driven data extraction and RAG-powered chatbots. Comfortable across front-end, back-end, and hardware acceleration, Anees also applies ML to domain problems from pulsar detection to chip fabrication modeling. Practical, research-driven, and product-focused, he favors solutions that push performance and energy efficiency without sacrificing usability.
