Hi, I'm Awais 👋,

I’m a product-minded software engineer, with 7 years of experience working at early-stage startups. I live in New York City.

Right now, I'm building software for US immigration. I wrote about my experience with the O-1 visa here.

I worked for 4 years at Wave (YC ‘12), on their journey to a $1.7B valuation. I was the 3rd engineer on the team and later became a tech lead. I wrote about my learnings here.

Before that, I backpacked around India, and studied physics and philosophy at Harvard.
