Ahmad Baha Al Thaher

Digital Concept Developer

Ahmad

Hey, I'm Ahmad.

I'm a designer and developer who moves across both disciplines fluently. That means I bridge gaps between design vision and technical reality, eliminate lost-in-translation moments, and make teams more coherent. I've led KOMPAS's digital division, built shipping AI tools, and founded ventures alongside talented teams. The real value is coherence, speed, and ideas that grow stronger through collaboration.

Design Visual identity, icons, character illustration, design systems.
Development Frontend code, UI/UX implementation, interactive experiences.
Dev Tools Claude Code, Cursor, Git, Umbraco, WordPress, Webflow. The stack that ships it.

Where I've Been.

"Stand on the shoulders of giants."

Education, work, and everything in between. Each role taught me something that feeds into the next. This is the thread that connects self-taught illustrator to founder to digital architect.

Education

PBA

Digital Concept Development

UCL Erhvervsakademi og Professionshøjskole

2025–2027

Formalizing what I've learned by doing. Architecture, systems thinking, and how to scale digital concepts beyond prototypes. The theory behind shipping things that last.

AP

Multimedia Design

IBA Erhvervsakademi Kolding

2022–2024

Turning intuition into skill. Went from self-taught to structured, learning the rules of UX, design systems, and how interfaces actually work under the hood.

HTX

Technology & Design

Odense Tekniske Gymnasium

2018–2021

Where it started. Learned that design isn't decoration, it's logic. Architecture, engineering, and the discipline to build things right from the foundation.

What Drives My Work

These aren't just ideals. They guide how I collaborate, make decisions, and contribute to the work, from the first sketch to the final ship.
