Shehryar Asif

Founder & Studio Principal
Faisalabad, Pakistan
BSc Software Engineering, NTU (2023 to 2027)

I build production-grade software platforms across every valuable vertical before AI makes them impossible to build cheaply. I automate everything that does not require human judgment, and I think in decades.

NeuroStackOS exists because I spent two years watching traditional dev shops fail their clients through vague scopes, missed timelines, and surprise invoices. The fix is not better talent. It is better process. Every NeuroStackOS engagement starts with a written scope and a fixed price before a single line of code is written. That discipline is the product.

Full-stack across Next.js, Flutter, Cloudflare Workers, Firebase, n8n, and the Groq LLM stack. I have shipped invoicing SaaS, email infrastructure platforms, behavioral intelligence systems, programmatic SEO engines, Chrome extensions, and desktop apps, all from one studio.

The Building Timeline

2022 — First Steps

AstraZen — Marketing Director & Founder

Growth and digital services agency. Acquired 2 clients from cold outreach with no prior technical knowledge. Closed after identifying structural gaps in lead generation and delivery margin. The lessons from this failure directly shaped the fixed-scope, fixed-price model NeuroStackOS runs on today.

2023 — Validation

NuraSkin — CEO & Founder

Direct-to-consumer skincare brand. Validated content-to-commerce playbooks via organic traffic. Built early instincts for SEO, product positioning, and digital distribution that compound across every project since.

2024 — Infrastructure

Arcade Hub + Early SaaS Portfolio

Shipped a featured Manifest V3 Chrome extension with 12+ mini games playable in-browser. Began systematising the SaaS holding portfolio that would become the NeuroStackOS studio model.

2025 — Publishing Scale

Publixion — Founder

Launched an automated digital publishing ecosystem integrated with LemonSqueezy, Gumroad, and Amazon KDP. 55+ live products, 4 daily social publishing cron slots via GitHub Actions, RAG-powered comment automation via Cloudflare Worker and KV.

2025 — Engineering Systems

MailBurn, Billr, SelfOS, FlowState

Shipped a full email-warmup SaaS (MailBurn) with Haraka SMTP, Dovecot IMAP, Hono API, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Flutter frontend. Built Billr as a multi-platform invoicing SaaS (React Native + Next.js + Cloudflare Workers + D1). Designed SelfOS as a 3-layer behavioral intelligence platform on 11-table D1 schema with 24 psychometric tests.

2026 — Present

NeuroStackOS — Studio Principal

Pakistan-registered IT services studio serving US, UK, and European founders. Fixed-scope, fixed-price engineering. BSc Software Engineering at National Textile University (2023 to 2027), building in parallel with full academic load.
