Areeb Pasha

Hi, I'm Areeb.

I build AI that holds up after the demo.

Applied AI engineer in Abu Dhabi. Agents, RAG, MCP servers, data pipelines, and the full-stack apps around them.

See projects Hire me / get in touch 

Open to applied AI roles and project work.

I've built for healthcare, legal, education, energy, and startups. The industry changes; the job doesn't. Take a messy problem, find the data, build the system end to end, and get it running.

I started out as a reliability engineer. From 2023 to 2025 I did RCM, FMEA, and risk assessments for oil and gas operators, which is mostly the study of how things fail. That habit stuck: I build things that keep working in production.

I've spent years in energy and industrial operations, so I'm especially useful there: I know how plants and equipment actually run.

I run Cloudmynt, a licensed AI consultancy in the UAE. Some of what I build is for my community, like Āyah Finder, which finds a Quran verse when you recite it. Mechanical engineer by degree.

Right now

  • Building agents and data systems as an AI & data engineer. ARIA is one of them.
  • Running Cloudmynt, my AI consultancy in the UAE, where I take on project work.
  • Studying. Georgia Tech's OMSA, a master's in analytics. In progress.
  • Writing short notes on what I'm building. The first one is up.

What I can do for you

The short version: I take an AI idea from the data coming in to the screen someone uses, and get it running.

AI agents & MCP

Agents that use real tools, follow real workflows, and know when to ask a person.

Claude · OpenAI · MCP servers · tool use

RAG & LLM apps

Answers from your own documents, with sources you can check.

Pinecone · vector search · evaluation · fine‑tuning

Data engineering

Streaming and batch pipelines that feed the models and the dashboards.

Kafka · Flink · Airflow · ClickHouse · Databricks · PySpark

Backend & full-stack

So the work ends up as a real product, not a notebook.

Python · FastAPI · React · Next.js · Postgres · Redis

Cloud & DevOps

Whichever cloud fits the job; I'm not loyal to a logo.

Azure · GCP · AWS · Cloudflare · Docker · Terraform

Computer vision

Object detection, plus the tooling to label the data it learns from.

YOLO · annotation tooling

Reliability analytics

My old field, turned into tools engineers will actually use.

RCM · FMEA · Weibull / life‑data analysis · risk assessment

Things I believe

  1. Security goes first, not last. Your data deserves care.
  2. Design the whole thing. From the data coming in to the screen someone uses.
  3. Ship it. If it isn't running, it isn't done.
  4. A good agent knows when to ask a person.
  5. Show your sources. No black boxes.

Things I've built

Grouped by kind. The featured ones are the best place to start.

Agents & MCP

  • ARIA featured An agent that asks before it acts.

    It uses MCP tools, and when it's missing context it reaches out to real people to get it, before doing anything.

    demo  (ARIA video) · code  (ARIA on GitHub)

  • InstantMCP featured Describe a server. Get a server.

    Write what you want an MCP server to do, and it gets created and deployed on Modal. Built for the Anthropic MCP hackathon.

    code  (InstantMCP on GitHub)

  • repoMCP Let an AI work on your repo without touching main.

    An MCP server that lets AI assistants explore, edit, and open pull requests on GitHub repositories through a safe feature-branch workflow.

    code  (repoMCP on GitHub)

LLM infrastructure

  • BenchRoute Stop paying top-model prices for easy tasks.

    Picks the cheapest LLM that current benchmarks say can handle your task.

RAG & search

  • Āyah Finder Recite a verse, get the ayah back.

    Built for my community. Deepgram does the transcription, and hybrid retrieval on Cloudflare Vectorize finds the match.

  • Maintenance Duration Estimator "How long will this job take?", with receipts.

    RAG over past work orders. It estimates how long a maintenance job will take and cites similar past jobs as evidence.

Industrial analytics

  • Weibull Analysis featured When should this equipment be replaced?

    Weibull life-data analysis for energy assets, right in the browser. My old job, as a tool.

Tools

  • Local Time Tracker for macOS A time tracker that keeps your time to itself.

    Everything stays in a local SQLite database. AI suggests which project you were working on.

    code  (Local Time Tracker on GitHub)

Work with me

Hiring for applied AI, or have a project that needs agents, RAG, or data done properly? I'd like to hear about it.

I'm open to full-time applied AI roles and to freelance or consulting work through Cloudmynt. Energy and industrial teams especially welcome.

Email is info@cloudmynt.io. I'm also on LinkedIn and GitHub.
