About Me
Who is Nashit Saleem?
Summary:

I help businesses work smarter by turning manual, repetitive processes into seamless automations. From handling thousands of form submissions to automating appointment flows, orders processing, and engineering CAD workflows. We build smart, scalable systems that deliver real-world efficiency and measurable results.

 

Our journey began with a simple realization: "Most teams waste time on things that can be automated." That insight led us to start SoftDev, where we build custom automation tools for teams across the US, Canada, and Europe.

Skills & Tools:
  • Python
  • Automation
  • MySQL
  • GitHub, Docker
  • API Integration
Core Focus:
  • AI automation systems for startups, e-commerce, healthcare, and engineering teams.
  • Reliable scraping, API, CRM, and reporting workflows that reduce manual work.
  • Tooling across Python, Selenium, Playwright, Zapier, n8n, Make, and custom dashboards.
  • Clean handoffs, measurable results, and automations that are easy to maintain.

How I Work
From idea to automation.
01

Map the workflow

I break down the manual process, data sources, rules, and edge cases before building.

02

Build the system

I connect APIs, browsers, AI agents, databases, and dashboards into one reliable flow.

03

Test and hand off

I validate the automation with real scenarios and leave it clean enough to run every day.
