Hello, I'm
Awais Khan
Senior Software Engineer — Platform & AI Infrastructure
I'm a Senior Software Engineer at CodiuX in Lahore, Pakistan, specializing in platform and AI infrastructure. I build the infrastructure behind voice AI systems that hold real conversations at scale — multi-region platforms handling thousands of live calls an hour, multi-LLM orchestration pipelines, and the eval harnesses that keep them honest before they ship. My background spans backend infrastructure, security, and applied AI, with a focus on systems that stay correct and fast under real production load.
