Abed Al Rahman

AI & Full-Stack Software Engineer

Graduating February 2027, based in Hong Kong

I build AI systems that make it to production: an agentic robot assistant at Rice Robotics, a clinical computer-vision platform I created at Movaia Tech, and web platforms shipped from Hong Kong to Madrid.

Experience

Six roles across Hong Kong, Madrid and Johannesburg.

Jun to Aug 2026

Hong Kong

Movaia Tech

Software Engineering Intern

  • Created Movaia Health and wrote three quarters of its 397 commits: empty repository to a live HTTPS platform on AWS in under six weeks
  • Built the computer-vision pipeline, a Dockerised Python service on PyTorch and MMPose tracking 133 body landmarks, and the signal-processing engine, written from scratch, that scores the SPPB fall-risk assessment against thresholds taken from published clinical literature
  • Wrote the Express and TypeScript API over PostgreSQL and Redis behind the React clinician app, replacing the original Django backend mid-project without disrupting the live system
  • Evaluated the pipeline on real clinical videos from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and added encrypted storage, ISO 27560 consent records, automated backups and cost controls
  • On the consumer running-analysis app, audited all 123 open bug reports and fixed 7 in two days

Apr to May 2026

Johannesburg, remote

Guns & Rain

Freelance Engineering Intern

  • Cleared problems that had blocked the gallery for months: root-caused a site-wide PDF-link outage and a latent server fault with agent-driven browser automation and custom tooling, then migrated the live site without losing a record
  • Built an automated redaction pipeline across 30+ exhibition catalogues, with checksummed backups and output that verifies itself pixel by pixel
  • Shipped two custom WordPress plugins and an SEO programme across 135 artworks and 17 artist pages; most artists now rank first on Google for their own names

Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong

Rice Robotics

Robotics & AI Software Engineer

  • Led integration of an agentic AI stack on the Rice Mini robot: voice recognition, LLM reasoning, expressive displays and autonomous behaviours in one control loop
  • Built the audio pipelines on Jetson edge hardware and Dockerised the on-device runtime so every unit deploys the same way
  • Taught AI, Python and hands-on robotics to school students and adult learners

Kwun Tong, Hong Kong

WYNI Technology

Digital Product Consultant

  • Put a live LLM agent on a client’s WhatsApp channel; it automated 70% of initial customer-service enquiries
  • Built a Next.js oversight portal for the client’s admin team, which made their daily admin work about 25% faster

Madrid, remote

LEVOX

Lead Software Engineer

  • Lead engineer on a modular Next.js battery-management platform, structured around route groups, custom hooks and reusable components
  • Clerk authentication over a Tinybird analytics backend with no data leaking between tenants; client-side filtering, memoisation and progressive loading cut interaction latency by 28%

Tsuen Wan, Hong Kong

AI Mnemonics

Data Scientist

  • Built preprocessing pipelines for time-series wearable sensor data from more than 1,000 users
  • Trained predictive models for heart-rate forecasting and cardiovascular risk detection

OrderVista

Dispatch and fleet platform

A web admin portal and a mobile driver app from one Flutter codebase. An agentic AI layer on DeepSeek V3 turns incoming messages into one-tap dispatch actions and made ticket creation 45% faster. Supabase row-level security keeps every company’s data apart, and an offline-first sync engine with exponential backoff keeps drivers working through dropped connections. Live on Vercel and Google Play.

Real Estate RAG Chatbot

Demo property advisor for Ricacorp

A retrieval-augmented chatbot on DeepSeek, with vector embeddings over a real-estate knowledge base. It answers questions about properties, the market and investment from the passages it retrieves.

Beyond the code

I’m a final-year Computer Science student at City University of Hong Kong on a full-tuition scholarship, and I’ve spent most of my degree shipping: robots in Hong Kong, a battery platform in Madrid, a clinical computer-vision system for a health-tech startup, and an art gallery’s digital operations run from the other side of the world.

The work I like best sits where AI meets something real: a robot that has to answer out loud, a patient’s gait on video, a hand gesture in a browser. Algorithms are half the job; the other half is understanding the humans they serve.

Published author

Wrote Holy Mysteries: Miracles of Makkah and the Quran, with Substantial Scientific Evidence (Amazon, 2024), #1 in its category in its first week.

Stage mentalist

Paid mind-reading shows at CityU events and private bookings: muscle reading and drawing duplication.

Reading an audience and reading a stakeholder meeting turn out to be the same skill.
