<p>Hi, I&apos;m Saqib Shaikh - a software developer from London, England, and currently working for <a href="http://microsoft.com">Microsoft</a> on <a href="http://bing.com">Bing</a>.</p>
<p class="summary"><img id="me" src="me.jpg" alt="" /> Hi, I&apos;m Saqib Shaikh - a software developer from London, England, and currently working for <a href="http://microsoft.com">Microsoft</a> on <a href="http://bing.com">Bing</a>.</p>

<p>I like making things. As a child at boarding school this ranged from writing to pottery to woodwork to electronics. And then one day, when I was 13, a kid showed me how to use Basic to choose six random numbers for the recently introduced National Lottery - I was hooked. I taught myself to program in C, and started selling my apps around school. Many years later, I still love using technology to create solutions to peoples' problems - I measure success by the smile it produces.</p>

<p>I went on to study <a href="http://www.essex.ac.uk/csee">Computer Science at <a href="http://www.essex.ac.uk">Essex</a>, where I graduated top of my class; and study <a href="http://www.informatics.sussex.ac.uk/research/groups/easy/">Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems</a> at <a href="http://www.sussex.ac.uk">Sussex</a>, with an internship at <a href="http://hpl.hp.com">HP Labs</a>. I started my career by spending a year at <a href="http://vodafone.com">Vodafone</a>, learning the ways of the business world, before making my way to Microsoft.</p>

<p>I spent 3¼ years in <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mcsuksoldev/">Microsoft Consulting Services</a>, helping customers develop solutions on the Microsoft stack; projects ranged from internal solutions for large enterprises like <a href="http://citibank.com">Citibank</a> and <a href="http://chevron.com">Chevron</a>, to government solutions for <a href="http://hmrc.gov.uk">HMRC</a> and <a href="http://nhs.uk">the NHS</a>, to proof of concepts for startups like <a href="http://microlib.co.uk">Micro Librarian Ssystems</a> and <a href="http://iwantgreatcare.org">IWantGreatCare.org</a>.</p>

<p>I&apos;ve spent the last 3+ years working on Bing&apos;s backend algorithms; mining data to produce the information displayed on the search results page to complement the core results. For example, suggesting &quot;related searches&quot; that may lead you to the information you seak, identifying &quot;deep links&quot; to take you to common destinations within a search result, or determining the order in which elements should appear on the page.</p>
