Hello, I'm 👋
Techno-Creative | Software Architect | AI Enthusiast
Founder & Architect @ Guava Trees Softech
With 18+ years of experience, I craft innovative software solutions, AI-powered applications, and help businesses transform their ideas into reality. Let's build something amazing together.
I'm a Software Architect and Technology Enthusiast with over 18 years building enterprise-grade systems — most recently a data-enrichment platform handling 250,000 enrichments a day across 25+ third-party providers. I specialize in distributed systems, event-driven pipelines and third-party API integration at scale, for companies like Sprouts.AI, Stripe, Ericsson and Tech Mahindra.
Recently, I completed a Post Graduate Program in AI/ML from Caltech, enhancing my expertise in Generative AI, LLMs, and Machine Learning. In 2019, I founded Guava Trees Softech with a vision to help businesses leverage cutting-edge technology. Today, we specialize in custom software development, AI-powered solutions, and seamless third-party integrations that serve clients globally.
Beyond the code, I'm passionate about mentoring the next generation of developers, exploring the latest in AI and machine learning, and finding innovative ways to simplify complex problems. When I'm not architecting solutions, you'll find me diving into sci-fi movies, solving sudoku puzzles, or experimenting with new technologies.
I help businesses build innovative software solutions that drive growth and efficiency. Here's how I can help you:
End-to-end software solutions tailored to your business needs, from concept to deployment. I build robust apps using modern tech and cloud-native architectures that grow with your business.
Harness the power of AI to automate processes and enhance customer experiences. From GPT-powered chatbots to intelligent document processing and workflow automation.
Strategic technical guidance to help you make informed decisions about architecture, technology stack, and scaling. I provide actionable insights to optimize your systems and reduce technical debt.
Seamless third-party API integrations including payment gateways, mult-channel notification systems, and enterprise service connections for your business.
Over the years, I've mastered a diverse set of technologies to deliver robust, scalable solutions.

Recommendations from colleagues and leaders I've had the privilege to work with over the years.
"Basit was one of the best engineers at Sprouts! He got more things done than 3-4 good engineers combined. I was lucky to have him as the lead engineer on my projects - without him, I am convinced I would not have been able to launch website tracking, funnels and onboarded a key data partner. He shows signs of exceptional Product Engineer - always wants to understand user problems and willing to bring in Product Manager into code logics to get the best of both worlds. If I was ever starting a new project/team and could choose only one engineer to work with on it, I would choose Basit without any hesitation."
Head of Product at Sprouts.ai
"I had the pleasure of working with Basit for nearly a decade, and his work has always been outstanding. He is incredibly skilled, detail-oriented, and always delivers high-quality code. More importantly, Basit's architectural decisions and problem-solving abilities are top-notch. I'm consistently impressed by his skills and dedication. I would certainly work with Basit again and I highly recommend him to everyone I know."
Head of Product for MBD at Stripe / OpenChannel
"I appreciate the commitment and dedication that Basit had shown for his job. He is one of the reliable resources and a go-getter. His technology know-how and his inclination towards continuous learning were an impressive value add he brought in. I still remember the instance where a revamp of the entire site was needed and he along with his colleague did that in a record 2 days straight and delivered on time without a glitch."
