Hi, I'm Ali Gajani, a design engineer at heart with a passion for building scalable Internet software that enhances human experiences. I specialize in crafting robust, user-centric solutions that bridge technology and business needs.

My journey spans from founding a tech blog in university to leading as CTO for innovative startups. Today, I am a Senior Full Stack AI Engineer at State, rebuilding democracy's infrastructure through civic tech and agentic AI.

I thrive at the intersection of technology leadership and entrepreneurship, architecting end-to-end solutions while ensuring alignment with strategic business objectives.

My expertise includes:

  • Full-stack development — Next.js, React, Vue, Node, Laravel, Python
  • Product design and UI/UX — Figma, TailwindCSS
  • AI and ML engineering — LangChain, LlamaIndex, RAG, AI agents
  • Cloud infrastructure — AWS, Vercel, databases
  • System architecture — APIs, integrations, microservices

There is a lot more to me than this, but this is a good starting point.
