About Me
Who I am and what I care about.
I'm Saadiah Saleem, a product‑minded aspiring front‑end developer based in Cologne, Germany. I combine a strong engineering background (M.E. in Computer Networks & System Security, B.E. in Computer Systems) with hands‑on experience as a Product Manager and Researcher in AI and smart city projects.
Over time, I've shifted my focus towards building user‑friendly, responsive web interfaces using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern front‑end libraries. I frequently use AI tools — Claude, GitHub Copilot, and ChatGPT — to accelerate prototyping, improve code quality, and explore modern development practices. These tools are a regular part of my workflow for research, writing, and code assistance. I'm especially drawn to roles where I can collaborate with teams, understand user needs, and ship meaningful features.
With multiple freeCodeCamp certifications, German language qualifications (up to B1), and experience working remotely across countries, I'm now actively looking for remote web development internships where I can grow as a developer and contribute with both my technical and communication skills.
