From clinical precision to digital craft
I'm Zaehid — an optometrist and pharmacist building a second career in software engineering. I bring the diagnostic rigour of healthcare to every line of code.
Three disciplines, one perspective
My path isn't conventional — and that's the point. Each discipline has shaped how I approach software: precision from optometry, analytical rigour from pharmacy, and a drive to build tools that genuinely help people.
Healthcare
GOC registered optometrist with years of clinical experience. I understand patient-centred design, accessibility requirements, and the regulatory landscape of healthcare.
Technology
MSc Computer Science student at BCU. Building full-stack applications with Next.js, Python, and Laravel. Passionate about clean architecture and real-time systems.
Analytical Thinking
GPhC registered pharmacist background gives me a strong foundation in systematic analysis, attention to detail, and evidence-based problem solving.
