Muhammad Khan

I am a second-year Software Development student at SAIT with a strong interest in applying technology to create innovative and user-focused solutions. With experience in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, Java, SQL, and UI/UX design, I bring both technical knowledge and adaptability gained from fast-paced retail environments. Currently, I am part of a team developing an interactive virtual campus map for SAIT, showcasing my problem-solving and collaboration skills. Passionate about continuous learning, I aim to contribute to projects that enhance efficiency and user experience.

Rental Car Mobile App (UX & Development Project, January 2025-April 2025, SAIT)

Collaborated in a team of four to design and prototype a mobile rental car application, focusing on user-centered design and usability best practices. The project involved end-to-end development from user research to UI design and testing. I led the observation research phase, documenting user interactions with competitor apps such as Hertz and Turo to identify key usability pain points. Our findings, combined with heuristic evaluations based on Nielsen’s principles, helped inform improvements in our prototype, particularly for the booking flow, damage reporting, and profile features. I contributed to wireframing and prototyping interactive screens using Figma and Balsamiq, ensuring strong visual hierarchy, consistency, and accessibility. We applied feedback from interviews and competitor analysis to improve contrast, alignment, and element proximity across screens. The final product was showcased through a 12-slide group presentation, where I presented the research findings and usability problems addressed. The project demonstrated my skills in UX research, design thinking, and front-end interface design using tools like Figma, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and Visual Studio.

CarMedic Auto Management System – Project Manager (CPSY 301 / Capstone September 2025–present, SAIT)

As Project Manager for a five-member team, I have led the design and documentation of the CarMedic Auto Management System — a web-based platform that streamlines auto repair shop operations through customer account management, appointment scheduling, payment processing, inventory control, and AI-generated repair reports. I produced the full UML Use Case Diagram in Software Ideas Modeler and authored all thirteen extended use case descriptions, defining actors, workflows, business rules, and <>/<> relationships. I coordinated system scope, integrated multilingual and supplier-API features, and implemented instructor and client feedback throughout Phases 1 and 2. Building on this foundation, the project will expand into our Capstone in May 2025, where I will oversee development, testing, and deployment of the working CarMedic application using modern full-stack technologies.

Got Lost?: Virtual Campus Map (Team Project, September 2025-present, SAIT)

I am working as the Mapping and Stitching Lead on Got Lost?: Virtual Campus Map, a team project designed to create an interactive 3D experience that allows users to explore the interior of SAIT through realistic 360° virtual tours. Using a 3D camera and Tourmkr, I collected and organized hallway photos, then built and stitched them together into a seamless virtual walkthrough. During Sprint 1, I developed a mock demo map using eight 360° images, and in Sprint 2, I expanded it to cover an entire wing, improving the transitions and overall map quality. I also contributed to branding by helping shape the project’s logo concepts and visual direction. This project allowed me to apply emerging trends in virtual reality, 360° visualization, and interactive digital mapping, while developing strong teamwork, organization, and technical design skill
