Architecting the Future of Communication:
From Enterprise Voice to AI Automation

Shabbir.

20 years of scaling global infrastructures for the Fortune 500, now focused on the next frontier: leveraging AI to reclaim time and bridge the gap between complex systems and human productivity.

The Expert Perspective

For over two decades, I have lived at the intersection of complex hardware and human connection. My career has been defined by one mission: simplifying the massive.

From consolidating 250,000 users for Bank of America to slashing infrastructure costs by 70% for global energy leaders, I don’t just “install systems”—I architect ecosystems. My background in Cisco UC, SIP architecture, and Cloud Environments is the foundation upon which I now build smarter, more autonomous business workflows.

Through Smbiz, I help small and mid-sized businesses automate lead nurturing, CRM workflows, and social planning. Note: While I am a dedicated AI enthusiast with 6 months of deep-dive implementation, my veteran background in systems architecture ensures these automations are built to professional-grade standards, not just basic templates.
