About me

Hey, I’m Subhan

I’m Subhan, a designer and engineer in Cambridge. I build thoughtful, functional, design-driven products, from rapid prototypes and internal tools to full production systems.

My background blends design, development and strategy, so I can take a project from first sketches to a scaled launch. Outside of work I’m usually building something: hardware, 3D prints, open-source tools, or a rabbit hole of retro tech. I’m most excited by ideas that mix creativity, utility and storytelling.

Based in Cambridge
