ABOUT

Mohammad Shaker.

Director, Agentic AI for the Enterprise at Writer. Building things at the intersection of language, intelligence, and design.

BIO

I specialize in productizing AI and machine learning in consumer-facing companies. Currently, I serve as Director of Agentic AI for the Enterprise at Writer — the enterprise AI platform for agentic work.

Previously, I was CTO at SpatialX AI where I led development of an AI platform for cancer detection and treatment, and Head of Engineering at Noon — the Middle East's largest e-commerce platform. Before that, I founded Alphazed, an AI-powered gamified EdTech product that reached over 500,000 users.

My research spans procedural content generation, player modeling, NLP, and physics-based game AI — with multiple papers nominated for best paper awards at international conferences. I started in academia where I published 10 papers as an undergrad.
