Software engineer. I land in unfamiliar domains and learn them well enough to build the core.https://habibafaisal.github.io/enhttps://habibafaisal.github.io/writing/hello/https://habibafaisal.github.io/writing/hello/One place for the work I've done, and a place to write.Thu, 22 Oct 2026 00:00:00 GMT<p>I wanted one place for everything I've done. Most of my work lives inside products that never had my name on them, or that never launched. A resume doesn't hold that well.</p> <p>I also wanted a place to write and ship. Writing makes me finish a thought. Shipping makes me finish the thing.</p> <p>I'll write about three things here:</p> <ul> <li>Fintech and credit systems, and what I'm learning about them.</li> <li>Building in a domain you don't know yet.</li> <li>Product work as an engineer: finding the real problem behind a request, and checking whether the fix worked.</li> </ul> <p>Posts will be short. Some will be wrong, and I'll say so when I find out.</p>
