Saleha Iftikhar
Forward Deployed Engineer building AI agents and full-stack products.
I care most about the part where they actually work: shipping software people can trust, from autonomous coding agents that fix real tickets to production web apps.
Ask Me Anything
The questions I get most, answered honestly
My minions. I am building a fleet of little AI agents that pick up small, repetitive tasks, fix them, prove the fix with tests, and open a pull request, all on their own. The dream is simple: my minions and I become best friends. They take the busywork so I can put my full attention on the bigger, harder problems.

Watch my minions work
This is the thing I am most obsessed with building right now. Pick a minion, watch it actually decide whether to ship, score its own confidence, then click straight through to the real pull request it opened.
These are recorded runs of a real system. The full source, the verification eval (0 unsafe ships), and every receipt live on GitHub.
Featured Projects
A selection of projects I have built, from production apps to academic work
Forge & the Minions
Creator
An agent that builds agents, plus a fleet of autonomous "minions" that fix GitHub and Linear issues and open verified pull requests, dispatched from Slack.
Grounded
Creator
A retrieval question-answering app for documents a general chatbot has never seen. It answers only from the source with inline citations, checks every claim against a real quote, and refuses when the document does not hold the answer.
Analytics Chat Assistant
Creator
A chat-native business intelligence tool where natural-language questions become validation-gated SQL, streamed back as charts and KPI cards, with a swap-in Claude or GPT provider.
Application Tracker
Creator
A job-tracking web app plus a Chrome (MV3) extension that scrapes postings from 6 ATS platforms into a profile-based autofill engine.
Data & Visualization
Turning real datasets into clear, honest visual stories
Data Visualization Portfolio
A collection of Python data-analysis projects on topics I care about, including women in tech, programming-language trends, and wage disparities. Each one cleans a real dataset and turns it into a clear visual story.
Movie Trends Analysis
A collaborative analysis of a dataset of the top 10,000 movies. It cleans and merges sources into one dataset, then surfaces trends through exploratory analysis and visualization.
Recreate and Remix, Developer Wages
Replicated a published visualization of software developers' wages, then remixed it with adjusted parameters to surface deeper insights.

My professional journey in software development
Forward Deployed Engineer
SuperOrgs
- •Embed with early users, running discovery to surface what they actually need and turning it into full-stack features in React, TypeScript, and PostgreSQL (Drizzle) that reach them behind CI gates
- •Shipped the Stripe billing that made the hosted product sellable, integrating subscription checkout, webhook-synced plan state, and tier-gated access so SuperOrgs could onboard paying customers
- •Own delivery end to end, from architecture through final review, using agentic coding workflows to take on larger scope, and hardened multi-tenant data scoping by moving tenant filtering into the query layer
Student Technical Project Manager
Infrastructure and Computing Office, Gettysburg College
- •Coordinated campus-wide WiFi analysis by scheduling scans, managing building access, and leading a 3-member team with Velaspan, using Ekahau and Python (NumPy) to process data that informed reliability upgrades
- •Automated permission-tracking and data-collection scheduling workflows for network site surveys across 30 or more buildings using Python and Pandas, reducing manual effort and shortening survey preparation
- •Facilitated student feedback sessions to identify connectivity issues and translated user insights into actionable recommendations for network improvements
Student Software Developer
Impact Rehab
- •Engineered a full-stack physiotherapy app using PHP, JavaScript, and MySQL, automating MSK score calculations that previously required manual entry
