01/Sanwar Hussain — Full-stack & AI engineer

I turn complex ideas into working products.

I'm Sanwar Hussain, a full-stack and AI product engineer. I design and build software end to end—from system architecture and backend infrastructure to polished interfaces and AI-powered workflows.

Interconnected systems — architectural sketch

Portrait of Sanwar Hussain
Sanwar HussainKolkata / Remote

I approach software as a complete system. That means understanding the problem, making architectural trade-offs, building reliable data and service layers, designing the user experience, and getting the product into users’ hands.

My work spans full-stack applications, AI-assisted workflows, retrieval-augmented systems, and product engineering — including Marg (indoor navigation), CrewPilot (field operations), and Med Assist (medicine-scan prototype). I use modern AI tooling to accelerate development, while relying on engineering fundamentals to determine the quality of the result.

03/Selected work

Selected work. Built from real problems.

Three systems I designed and built end to end — each from a concrete problem, through architecture decisions, to a working product.

01

gomarg.in

Marg

Indoor navigation for complex public spaces.

Problem

GPS fails inside hospitals and large public institutions, leaving patients and visitors without a reliable way to find departments, counters, or floors.

Implementation

Solo-built platform (04/2026 – present): Next.js + TypeScript front end, MargAI voice assistant on Gemini 2.5 Flash after evaluating three real-time voice approaches, 7-locale support, offline-capable PWA, Supabase + Pinecone for community mapping and retrieval, contribution and redemption logic, and multi-role auth.

02

crewpilot.pro

CrewPilot

A unified workspace for operational coordination.

Problem

Field teams coordinate tasks, assets, incidents, and dispatch across disconnected tools, which slows response and loses operational context.

Implementation

Operations platform covering task assignment, asset tracking, approval workflows, real-time messaging over Socket.io, and an AI assistant with Gemini Live voice for dispatch support.

03

medassistapp.vercel.app

Med Assist

Exploring AI-assisted medicine information workflows.

Problem

Patients have difficulty reading medicine strips, understanding basic dosage information, and keeping a record of past scans.

Implementation

Prototype OCR-to-LLM pipeline: medicine-strip photo parsing, ingredient extraction, LLM-assisted dosage guidance, and encrypted scan history. AI-generated medical information requires verification and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
