I build the part of your product people remember.

Six years of turning complicated products into interfaces that feel effortless. Right now I’m doing that for InsuranceMarket.ae in Dubai.

Chapter 01

The short version

Portrait of Ubaid Hussain
Karachi, Pakistan

I shipped my first real website in 2019, for a charity building schools in Nigeria. Since then I've built dashboards that turn messy data into decisions, apps that run quietly inside other people's online stores, a startup I sold a little too early, and, as part of a team in Dubai, a faster home for one of the UAE's insurance marketplaces. These days I build alongside a team of AI agents I wrote myself. The tools keep changing. The obsession doesn't: whoever uses what I make should never have to think about it.

    Dashboards that make sense of messy data

    Analytics, CRM and receipt data turned into screens people actually open every morning. I built the ZeroSlip dashboard end to end.

  • I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Ubaid on several projects at InsuranceMarket.ae, and he’s genuinely a very skilled and dependable front-end developer. He has worked across different InsuranceMarket product lines, including Car, Travel, Health and so on, and I’ve particularly enjoyed seeing how well he understands both the technical and product sides of the work. Ubaid is also very good with AI and has a strong ability to use it to explore solutions, work faster and turn ideas into functional experiences. I’ve worked with him through some challenging technical issues, including API and journey debugging, and he’s always willing to dig in and figure things out. Beyond his technical skills, he’s easy to work with, collaborative and takes ownership of his work. I’d happily recommend Ubaid to any team looking for a strong front-end developer who combines technical expertise, product thinking, AI proficiency, and a genuine commitment to getting the work done well.

  • I had the opportunity to work with UBAID HUSSAIN at the beginning of my professional journey, and I can confidently say that he has played a very important role in my growth as a developer. He is an exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable software developer who has a strong ability to understand complex problems and find effective solutions. During our time working together, we worked on several projects, many of which presented challenging technical problems. Whenever I faced a challenge, he was always there to guide me, explain things clearly, and help me approach problems with a better mindset. What I appreciate most about him is that he never simply gave me the answers. He encouraged me to understand the problem, think critically, and improve my own skills. A significant part of my foundation as a developer comes from the guidance and mentorship I received from him. Beyond his technical expertise, he is also a genuinely supportive, humble, and great person to work with. His professionalism, problem-solving skills, and willingness to help others make him someone I truly respect. I’m genuinely grateful that he was one of the first people to guide me in my professional career, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a highly skilled developer, mentor, and an excellent person to work with.
