The Person Behind the Studio.

Shuhaib is a senior software engineer in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Currently building Sysco Labs’ internal agentic orchestration platform with Frontwalker: the layer that powers multi-agent AI across the enterprise.

Six years writing production code. Most of it on Planyear’s US benefits stack at Altrium: OAuth and SSO flows, the Outlook add-in that shipped to Microsoft AppSource in four weeks, the AI-assistant UI wired over WebSocket to a live model.

The studio is where the build work lives. Solo engagements, one at a time. Usually a prototype that has to survive contact with a real user before anyone else commits to it.

Booking q3 2026, one build at a time. Replies inside 48 hours, always.

EXPERIENCE
2026 — Present · Frontwalker · deployed @ Sysco Labs
Senior Software Engineer · AI

Building Sysco's internal agentic orchestration framework: the platform that powers multi-agent AI systems across the enterprise. Agentic workflows, software design, system-level shape.

#01
2025 — 2026 · Altrium · Planyear (US Benefits)
Senior Software Engineer · Team Lead

Led a scrum team end-to-end across design, architecture, and ship. Drove the Outlook (Desktop & Web) add-in to Microsoft AppSource in four weeks. Mentorship on the hot paths, sprint discipline, predictable delivery.

#02
2023 — 2025 · Altrium · Planyear (US Benefits)
Software Engineer

Digital Benefit Guide: OAuth, SSO, cookie-based auth, and performance work on a large-scale app. Planyear AI-Assistant: complex UI and WebSocket-based real-time communication with the assistant backend.

#03
SKILLS
AI-Native Product

RAG with hybrid retrieval, document understanding, agentic workflows. With the evals and guardrails that keep them alive after launch week.

#01
Production Backend

Spring Boot, Go, real-time pipelines, OAuth and SSO. The plumbing that has to work at 3am.

#02
Full-Stack Builds

Schema, model, frontend, backend, infra, deploy. One engineer owning every layer end to end.

#03
Technical Leadership

Architecture review, scope-cutting, code review on the hot paths. The senior call when there's only one shot at it.

#04
AI Tooling

OpenAI, Anthropic, RAG, evals, observability for LLM systems. Eval harnesses that catch drift before customers do.

#05
Infrastructure

AWS, GCP, Vercel, Postgres, Mongo, Docker, CI/CD. The boring layer every AI feature eventually leans on.

#06
Motion & Interaction

GSAP, canvas, scroll-driven prototypes. Interfaces that feel inevitable.
