Hi, I’m Mahdi, an AI-native software engineer.

Four years of React, Next.js and TypeScript on real products, under real load. Right now I’m one of two engineers building InnoMeet, a live-class app for a team in Melbourne, and I still ship for Armani English here in Tehran. I live on Linux, let Claude and Cursor do the typing, and read every line before it ships.

Software engineer
An all-in-one learning platform: an LMS plus InnoMeet, a live online meeting app built for classes. Both live in one Turborepo monorepo.

What I built there
- We’re a two-person front-end team, and I built a big part of InnoMeet and its blocks: chat, live video, image and audio streaming.
- Live quizzes and polls a teacher can drop into the middle of a class.
- A native image creation tool, built from scratch with zero AI.
- The assignments and exams module of the LMS, plus several landing pages for the main site.
- Went beyond my tasks: pitched and shipped UX improvements for the product and cleaned up the team’s CI/CD.

What I built there
- I build and maintain the main website and the admin panels, with responsive, reusable components made side by side with the UX/UI and product design team.
- AI-powered features, including an automated exam and scoring system: students take the exam, AI grades it.
- The student portal (my.armanienglish.com): real-time exams, AI scoring, a smart study planner, study clubs and live webinars.
- Fixed Core Web Vitals issues and cut page load times by 30%, with a noticeably better SEO and a proper CI/CD pipeline.
- Brought an AI-assisted workflow into the team with Claude Code and Cursor: faster features and refactors, same quality bar.
Before that? I was studying, obviously!

How AI changed my workflow

Most of my first drafts aren’t typed by me anymore. I plan, an agent writes, and I read the diff like a stranger wrote it, because one did. The loop looks like this:

I plan itthe what and the why
An agent drafts itClaude Code, Cursor
I read every linelike a stranger wrote itnot right? again
Tests and CIthe robots check too
Ship itthen the next one

My AI toolbox

Four keys I press every day. Tap one to meet the tool.

Claude Code
My main agent. It lives in the terminal: plans the change, writes it, refactors it.
Cursor
The editor I read diffs in, with quick inline edits and tab completions.
Antigravity
Google’s agent-first IDE, for when a few agents work side by side.
Hermes Agent
Nous Research’s open-source agent: my sidekick for research and side chores.

Or ask the terminal

A real little shell I wrote in about 4KB of TypeScript. Type the command «help» to see what it can do, or just press one of the keys under the screen.
