Hi there! I'm Umer Riaz, a passionate software engineer with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. For past years, I've been working as a web developer, and I absolutely love creating things that live on the internet. It all started in 2020 when I got interested in web development while experimenting with customizing websites as part of a university course. Surprisingly, I learned a lot about HTML and CSS through that experience!
Since then, I've been fortunate to work at a startup and a software development company. These days, my main focus is building accessible and inclusive products and digital experiences at Slysol. I have served a variety of clients, and I find great satisfaction in bringing their ideas to life.
I'm truly passionate about what I do, and I'm constantly striving to improve. Technology has the power to make a positive impact, and I believe in harnessing that power through my work. I'm excited about the future and the opportunities that lie ahead. I'm always ready to push the boundaries and create meaningful solutions through software engineering.

Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:

CSS3
JavaScript (ES6+)
TypeScript
Reactjs
Nextjs
Node.js
Restful APIs
Chakra
Tailwind
Bootstrap
Firebase

Spearheaded the digital transformation of MK-Engineering, crafting a dynamic and informative website using Next.js, creation of a sleek, interactive product catalog, showcasing their state-of-the-art power engineering solutions, making it easier for potential clients to explore their offerings and by optimizing for SEO and user experience, I significantly enhanced brand visibility and customer engagement

Collaborated with a cross-functional team to develop a multi-tenant ERP for a Unified Donor Engagement Platform, aimed at enhancing donor management and engagement for organizations. My primary role focused on the frontend, where I utilized React.js to build a responsive, user-friendly dashboard, ensuring seamless accessibility across devices. I closely integrated frontend components with backend services, coordinating with backend engineers to streamline data flow and functionality

Integrated Clerk’s organization management features with Firebase to streamline user authentication and data storage. This integration enabled secure, real-time syncing of user profiles and organization-specific data, optimizing backend data handling and providing seamless, role-based access controls. The setup facilitated efficient management of user and organization data within Firebase, enhancing overall functionality and data security.

Developed a high-end, modern UI for an enhanced user experience on the Neuronus platform, built with Next.js. The design includes dynamic, animated sections that showcase the company’s expertise, service offerings, development process, products, and portfolio, providing an engaging and interactive experience for users. Integrated Strapi to enable dynamic content management for the eBook section, allowing the company to expand its digital library. Additionally, I built an admin panel, empowering the team to easily upload and manage eBooks

Built a captivating web presence for a digital asset-hiding tool, designed to conceal data within the binary code of images. Developed with Next.js, the website features sophisticated animations, where sections seamlessly animate over one another to tell the story of the tool’s purpose, target audience, and functionality. These animations create a layered, immersive experience that guides users through the tool's features, intended use cases, operational overview, and FAQs, effectively engaging visitors and showcasing the tool's unique capabilities.
