I'm Istiyak Amin Santo, an open-source developer, researcher, and entrepreneur with a passion for leveraging technology to solve real-world challenges. Currently, I serve as a Graduate Research Assistant at Multimedia University (MMU) , where I focus on the Life Cycle Assessment of Biofuel from Waste Cooking Oil in Malaysia —a project aimed at driving sustainable energy solutions.

My journey began in Computer Science and Engineering , followed by years of experience in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning as a software engineer. I’ve had the privilege of working with innovative teams at companies like RoyalRecruiter , KING APPS STUDIO , and serving as CTO of PAFG BD LTD.

At the intersection of tech and sustainability, I’m building toward a future where cutting-edge algorithms optimize renewable energy processes and reduce environmental impact. Beyond research and development, I'm actively involved in WordPress community-building initiatives , volunteering my time to contribute to open-source projects.

I'm always excited to collaborate, mentor, and explore new ideas that push the boundaries of what's possible through code and innovation.
