Building Olive. Studying hiring signals. Helping people become dangerous with AI.

I build AI products and explain the job market before everyone pretends it was obvious. Currently building Olive, publishing as @remoteree, and helping people become AI-native builders through KhwajaLabs.

What I do

Four things, one through-line: building with AI.

Olive is the venture. RemoteRee is how the work travels. KhwajaLabs is how people prove they can do it. And I help teams and events make sense of all of it.

Build Olive

Olive is my main venture: an agentic AI company for the real-world workflows that still run on phone calls, follow-ups, handoffs, and human memory.

Starting wedge: voice-first workflows for SMBs — missed-call recovery, intake, scheduling, follow-ups, outbound calling, and customer handoffs.

Most businesses don't need another dashboard. They need the work to actually get done.

Publish @remoteree

I publish on AI-era hiring signals, software career trends, practical AI workflows, and what people should build next.

Audience: 100K+ followers across socials.

Build KhwajaLabs

KhwajaLabs is an AI career-readiness platform helping learners build stronger projects, practice work simulations, and create better proof of skill.

For: software engineers, students, bootcamp learners, workforce programs, and colleges.

For people tired of building the 900th todo app.

Speak · workshop · consult

I work with startups, tools, schools, bootcamps, workforce programs, and teams on AI-era software careers, building with AI, technical content, and agentic workflows.

Speaking · workshops · consulting · brand partnerships · sponsored content · UGC / technical demos · founder collaborations.

If it helps people build, learn, work, or hire better — let's talk.

Ventures

What I'm building.

Three connected bets on the AI era — the venture, the audience, and the proof layer.

Audience · mini media kit

100K+

followers across socials

The audience: software engineers, students, new grads, AI builders, founders, job seekers, and technical creators trying to stay useful in a very weird job market.

I make content for people trying to understand where software, AI, careers, and work are going — without pretending every new tool is either magic or the apocalypse.

Speaking · workshops · work with me

Talks that make AI feel less like a buzzword and more like a thing you can build with.

For people who want to do more than vibe-code into the void. I work with conferences, schools, bootcamps, workforce programs, and teams.

Speaking

Conferences, universities, developer events, startup communities, and career events. AI-era careers, hiring signals, and becoming an AI-native builder.

Workshops

Hands-on sessions for students, engineers, founders, and teams who want to stop “learning AI” abstractly and actually build useful things with it.

Consulting

For AI, devtool, career, education & workforce startups: technical content strategy, creator-led GTM, product positioning, and explaining technical products to busy, mildly-skeptical humans.

Brand partnerships

Sponsored short-form, product walkthroughs, technical explainers, newsletter placements, founder-style demos, and UGC-style technical content.

Why listen to me?

I've built software in enough serious industries to know that “just add AI” is not a strategy.

Fintech, healthcare, 3D printing, AI education, and SMB automation. Translation: I like building useful systems in places where the details actually matter.
