What Pakistani Companies Actually Want From AI Engineers

Hey I am Usman a Software Engineer in Pakistan and if you want are a student of CS these tools would be very helpful to you. On this channel I share my journey and all the tips and tricks of the current tech sector and AI trends so Subscribe and follow along I went through AI engineering job posts in Pakistan, and almost all of them want the same thing: a backend engineer who can build with AI. Here's the exact 5-stage roadmap I'm following to become an AI engineer in 2027, with a test project, a checkpoint and free resources for every stage. Full guide (checklist, every test project, every free resource): https://devdiary.live/guides/how-id-b... FREE RESOURCES BY STAGE Stage 1: Python and backend Harvard CS50's Introduction to Programming with Python: https://cs50.harvard.edu/python/ FastAPI official documentation: https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/ Test project: an API for university courses and past papers, with endpoints that fetch the data. Checkpoint: you can build a FastAPI project with endpoints without following a tutorial line by line. Stage 2: How LLMs work and prompting Andrej Karpathy's YouTube channel:    / @andrejkarpathy   DeepLearning.AI free short courses: https://www.deeplearning.ai/short-cou... Test project: paste a messy job post, get back structured output (skills, experience, salary). Stage 3: RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) Hugging Face free courses: https://huggingface.co/learn Test project: write 20 questions, build a RAG system over your documents, and check it answers them right. Stage 4: Agents and MCP (Model Context Protocol) Test project: an AI agent that checks job boards every morning and emails you the 5 best jobs for your skill level. Bonus: plug in your Stage 2 project. Stage 5: Ship it and get seen Learn Docker and deployment, host your projects, put them on GitHub with a live link and a proper README, then post them on LinkedIn: how you built it, what tech you used and what problem it solves. 0:00 - Introduction / The job post that changes everything 0:53 - What an AI engineer actually does 1:28 - What Pakistani companies actually ask for 2:09 - Stage 1: Python and backend 3:20 - Stage 2: Working with LLMs 4:16 - The 2 mistakes that waste your first 6 months 5:10 - Stage 3: RAG 5:57 - Stage 4: Agents and MCP 6:44 - Stage 5: Ship it and get seen 7:27 - Recap I'm a backend engineer transitioning into AI, and I'm documenting the whole journey on this channel.
