Post-acquisition handoff
OnSense closed an acquisition earlier this year. Working alongside the buyer’s team through the integration — making sure the product, the tech, and the people all land well on the other side.
Research & exploration
Early thinking on what’s next. Same pattern as Centriq and OnSense — predictive maintenance and operator intelligence for automotive service networks and industrial operators. The ones wrestling with fragmented repair knowledge, inconsistent technician output, and maintenance workflows that don’t scale. More when it’s ready.

Notes on building from Pakistan, lessons from an exit, and what fifteen years of hustle actually taught me. Read them here.
Built the predictive maintenance and equipment intelligence layer for the property management industry. Centralised fragmented technical knowledge into scalable, AI-driven systems. Bootstrapped from Pakistan. Acquired.
Acquired by Fix.com in 2021. Joined right after the co-founders as an integral part of the founding team — held equity, and was there from conception through to exit. Built the content curation and delivery system from scratch, scaling it to a 150-person team. Developed the world's most sophisticated asset age extraction system.
Contributed to the World Bank Group's digital empowerment programs across Pakistan as a technical consultant. Under the GSURR programme, delivered skill development training to enable youth self-employment in the digital economy.
The back office for the home management and repair industry. 150-engineer operation providing technical customer support, data curation, and operational systems to US home services businesses. Based in Dubai.
Founded a social venture where alumni went on to generate over $2 million, a 727% ROI on every dollar spent. Trained 2,000+ individuals in digital skills across Pakistan, saw 20+ companies formed, and left a mark on countless lives that numbers alone can't capture. Ran in partnership with the World Bank Group. Built from nothing. Closed with proof.
The freelance years — where I learned to ship. Built a string of early products, including CrimeMapper (winner, Best Startup award) and ElectoMap, an interactive map system sold to one of Pakistan’s major media houses for their 2013 general election broadcast. The reps that seeded everything after.
Let’s live lives that matter.

I work with Sajid & team utilizing product age extraction technology that helps identify age of assets. These data points support our marketing efforts and are a key component of our mobile app. They created a streamlined solution to manage content around home management.
I would recommend Resource X to any company looking for remote technical customer support. Sajid understood our business needs from day one and was able to source the right people to work on our project. His team delivers high-quality, consistent results month after month.
I have worked with Sajid for over 7 years. He is a patient, thoughtful and proactive team member and partner. He is committed to quality and cares very deeply about delivering the best product and experience. We have worked closely together to develop efficient processes and workflows.
