Summary
Saad Ahmad is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with 10 years of experience building resilient, cloud-native systems and consumer-facing features across companies like Expedia Group, Regrello, and Ironclad.

Saad is comfortable across the stack, advocates for automation (he’s cut grading time via Python scripting), and brings a habit of translating complex problems into streamlined, measurable outcomes.
