Hassan Azad is a solutions engineer and software developer with nine years of professional experience who combines a First Class M.Eng. in Chemical Engineering with intensive software training from Makers Academy and Harvard’s CS50. He has hands-on experience building Python-based ETL API adapters, Django/Flask web apps, and containerised deployments using Docker and AWS Lambda, and practices CI/CD, Gitflow and TDD in Agile teams. As a freelancer he delivered client-focused inventory and invoicing systems and a talent-identification app for a national cricket academy, owning the full lifecycle from requirements to testing and support. His background as a professional cricketer and team captain informs a collaborative leadership style, calm under pressure and a habit of rapid learning and adaptation. Notably, he picked up C and low-level memory management through CS50 in weeks and translated that rapid technical uptake into delivering a well-tested MVP under a stretch deadline. Based in Leicester, he thrives on mentoring peers, embracing code reviews, and solving practical problems that bridge product needs and robust engineering.
