    What do you need?

    Muhammad Zeeshan

    I'm Muhammad Zeeshan, a Full Stack AI Engineer and founder of ZorceX. I grew up in the village of Janpur and moved to Bahawalpur with my family to pursue better education and opportunity.

    My focus is on ML/AI systems in production: RAG pipelines, LLM agents, automation, and full-stack delivery. I've shipped work as an AI Engineer on Upwork and as an AI Agent & Automation Specialist on Fiverr, serving international clients, founders, and startups across NLP, workflow automation, and production AI APIs.

    I'm pursuing a BS in Artificial Intelligence at The Islamia University of Bahawalpur, where I serve as a Senior Executive Member of the AI Club: leading workshops, mentoring students, and bridging academic learning with industry-style projects. I've competed in 10+ hackathons, including MIT Global AI Hackathons, and completed training through NAVTTC and the Pak AI Vision Group (CAI) program.

    I founded ZorceX to share practical AI knowledge and connect builders with professionals across AI, software engineering, and founder communities. I'm active on GitHub, write on Medium and Substack, and document projects on this portfolio. I enjoy learning in public, hackathons, and teaching. if you'd like to collaborate.
