Muhammad Saad
AI Engineer & Full Stack Developer building production ERP and Claude/OpenAI systems
I build software that removes manual work from factory operations - production planning, OEE, QC records, batch tracking, inventory, Sage integration, Excel automation and PDF reporting - and I wire language models into it where they earn their place. At Kingsley Beverage the Claude API and OpenAI API run inside production document-processing and reporting workflows; the model advises and deterministic code acts, so the AI path holds no write credentials to the ERP.
My advantage is understanding both operations and software: I can run and support Krones beverage production lines, coordinate operators during shifts, and build the external system that tracks downtime, stores production data, and lands a daily report in the GM’s inbox. The software is around the production workflow - I don’t modify the Krones machine automation itself.
Currently based in the UAE and open to relocate worldwide for AI engineering, backend, full-stack, ERP/MES, or automation roles. Currently employed, so available on two weeks’ notice.
