This GitHub profile is managed entirely through AI agents and automation systems. All commits, updates, and content management are orchestrated programmatically—I don't manually push or commit code here. This README serves as a portfolio snapshot of my professional background and capabilities.
I'm Fabian Faraz Farid, an AI solutions engineer and the founder of LuminaX Digital in Mönchengladbach, Germany, and I've been shipping products for over a decade. These days I help companies put AI to work: automation, custom integrations and intelligent systems design.
I finished my Master's in AI at Heinrich Heine University, where I researched adversarial attacks on explainable AI (spoiler: robustness is harder than it looks). I've worn a lot of hats: CTO roles, full-stack development, game dev, enterprise software, cloud security, and now AI solutions engineering.
What I'm up to:
- Building LuminaX Digital: software, automation and AI for mid-sized companies
- Creating content on AI tools, automation architecture, and builder workflows
- Exploring agentic AI, LLM applications, and AI-driven business optimization
- Building in public and sharing what we learn along the way
- Playing basketball when I'm not shipping code
Things I actually enjoy working with: React and the modern frontend ecosystem, backend systems (Spring Boot, Node.js), cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), and deep work in AI/ML with LLMs, automation frameworks, and intelligent workflows.
Languages I speak: German and Dari natively, professional English, and I can get by pretty well in Spanish and Arabic. Currently butchering French as a beginner.
Languages: Python, Java, TypeScript, JavaScript, C#, C++
Frontend: React, Next.js, Vue.js, Angular, TailwindCSS, Three.js
Backend: Spring Boot, Node.js, .NET, Django
Cloud & Infrastructure: AWS, Azure, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes
AI/ML: LLMs, TensorFlow, PyTorch, OpenAI APIs, LangChain, n8n, automation frameworks
Databases: MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Firebase
Other stuff: Unity, Unreal Engine, Blender (from my game dev days)

I'm always down to talk about AI automation, business scaling, agentic systems, or tech in general. Hit me up if you want to collaborate, discuss automation architecture, or just connect.
