BORING BIO

I'm Shahnawaz — based in Lahore, Pakistan. By day I work at CloudCard, a BaaS/fintech company, as a Solutions Engineer and TAM. I debug APIs, write RCAs, and keep enterprise clients from going sideways.

By night, I run Brun Coffee Club — a quiet-luxury bottled iced coffee brand out of Lahore. Single-origin Ethiopian cold brew concentrate, milk-forward, 4 SKUs. Built as a membership, not a daily FMCG drink.

I also built Lunaro OS — a photobooth kiosk SaaS running on Electron + React, deployed at live events. DSLR control, print workflow, Supabase backend. Windows-only, offline-first.

Before all of this, I competed as a national-level swimmer. These days it's just running, and the occasional early morning when the pool calls.

Goal in the next 8 months: hit profit threshold on the ventures, exit the day job. Operating on Pakistani time, which means late nights and early mornings.
