Live Stream Engineer & Technical Producer

About

Engineering the Signal.
From Source to Screen.

With 7+ years at the intersection of live production and technical engineering, I've architected broadcast infrastructure that performs when it matters most — in front of millions. My work spans ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 delivery pipelines to Pakistan's premier esports stages.

I operate across both worlds: the disciplined precision of enterprise broadcast and the high-octane intensity of competitive gaming production. Whether it's multi-platform ad-insertion workflows or a 16-team CS2 LAN event, I build systems that don't fail.

As founder of Arcadium by ViderGG and a leadership role at Vider Media, I combine technical depth with strategic thinking — designing infrastructure, leading teams, and raising the bar for live production in Pakistan.
