Usama Navid

Co builder at Buildberg

I am a passionate learner who refuses to settle for mediocrity. Until my second semester at University, I was just a normal straight A student who never had a computer. I was 19 when I got my first laptop through a merit based scholarship and I got fascinated by the tech.

I helped Abdullah build and raise for his venture studio. I previously helped Hassan & Salman build and scale Taraki, an HR tech startup backed by Sarmayacar. Before that, I built stuff at Alt Ventures, a startup studio based in Lahore, Pakistan.

I love to think that I live in a Minecraft server where I can build anything I want with the blocks available.

About Me

While studying mechanical engineering, I completed more than 40 MOOCs in different domains including machine learning, deep learning, development, supply chain, and data science. Currently, I'm exploring the modern data stack, MLOps and LLMOps in more depth.

In my free time, I watch YouTube (tech, engineering, productivity, and education), CuriosityStream, or read books. Currently reading "The Cold Start Problem" and "Designing Data Intensive Applications."
