A short biography.

I'm Zeeshan Altaf — founder of 92labs.ai, an Agentic AI and Automation lab. My work focuses on designing multi-agent workflows, building LLM-powered products, and helping organizations move from AI experiments to real, operational systems.

That work is grounded in 20+ years of engineering leadership. Before founding 92labs.ai, I spent over two decades shipping complex products across embedded, IoT, and AI/ML — most recently as Director of Engineering Operations at Siemens Industry Software, and before that in progressive leadership roles at Mentor Graphics.

Today, I bring that same discipline to agentic systems: turning ambitious AI ideas into products that actually ship.
