About me

I am Abdul Tayab, a passionate Software Engineering student at Iqra University with a deep fascination for Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and system design. My journey into technology began with inspiration from the film Snowden, which opened my eyes to the profound connection between computing, ethics, and the power of intelligent systems. That spark turned into a lifelong mission — to build technologies that make human life smarter, safer, and more efficient. Throughout my academic journey, I’ve worked on multiple AI-driven projects, the most significant being AutoApplyPro, an AI-powered job-seeking and recruitment automation platform. Designed to simplify the hiring process for both candidates and employers, AutoApplyPro reflects my belief in using AI for social and professional empowerment. Developing it enhanced my understanding of real-world automation, data-driven decision-making, and responsible innovation — areas I continue to explore through research and experimentation. Beyond technical development, I am deeply interested in research and global collaboration. I aspire to contribute to the international research community by exploring how AI can be integrated ethically into industries like healthcare, recruitment, and cybersecurity. I am currently preparing for research-based scholarship opportunities in Australia and the United States, with the goal of advancing my studies and contributing to cutting-edge projects in AI and intelligent systems. I believe that innovation begins with curiosity and grows with collaboration. My vision is to become a global AI researcher and engineer who bridges creativity with technology to build solutions that truly impact lives. Every line of code I write, every paper I read, and every idea I pursue is part of that mission.

David Adeyinka

I’m a Med student, product designer and manager with a technical edge, focused on AI systems, financial automation, and user-centered design for emerging markets. I bring the perspective of someone who builds where infrastructure gaps are real, where payments fail, regulations shift, and “trust” is not a default feature. My strength is in designing intelligent, usable systems that bridge this gap, combining AI, decentralized finance, and human behavior insight to make financial tools work in the real world, not just in theory. I’m joining the ARC hackathon to build something that reflects how the world actually works from the ground up- useful, intelligent, and natively adapted to the constraints of emerging ecosystems.

Maryam Nadeem

As a dedicated computer science student at University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, I am deeply passionate about the fields of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML). As I navigate through my academic journey, I’ve been focusing on Python programming to build a strong foundation for these dynamic areas. My ambition is to leverage AI and ML to drive innovation and solve real-world problems. I’m actively seeking to connect with professionals, researchers, and enthusiasts who share my enthusiasm for these technologies.
