Greetings! I'm Muhammad Waseem
12+ years building mobile products at scale in my career across the world — now building the companies behind them.
At Syntax Talents, we help companies across Europe and the MENA region grow with remote talent — from hiring skilled developers to building your product with our offshore team. Bring us your idea, and we'll build it end-to-end. We're also building our own products, and we're open to setting up a dedicated regional branch for organizations that want a long-term local presence. Before this, I spent 12+ years as a mobile engineer building Android apps — and once boosted an app's performance by up to 90% through clean, modular architecture.
Today, I lead Syntax Talents — building AivaFleet, Travelenture, and Healora AI.
