Now

Building: retail event-bus + platform modernization work (Microhouse)
Learning: additive fabrication / 3D printing
Exploring: practical uses of generative AI heading into 2026
Outside: winter trails (snowshoeing) + ice fishing; training with my Bear Grizzly 58" recurve and getting back into shape

About Me

I’m Babak Morshedizadeh — a hands-on software developer and technology/product leader (shipping since 1987). My current focus is retail tech stacks, especially the data and integration layers that make modern systems (and AI) reliable in production.

Current interests (non-work)

Traditional archery, trail cameras / wildlife scouting
Outdoors: hiking, camping, ice fishing, off-roading/backroads
Road trips: planned like small projects (and priced like real ones)
New rabbit hole: additive fabrication / 3D printing (learning by building)

Personal notes

Favourite seasons: fall + winter.
Happiest place: fresh air, wildlife, and a solid meal (extra points if it’s cooked over a fire).
Building is my passion: I haven’t “worked” a single day in my life. The more pressure, the more fun it gets.

Small life fact

Married 12+ years (very grateful).
Cold beer (especially Sleeman Honey Brown Lager) and crispy bacon are life.

Professional

Summary
Hands-on technology leader with 35+ years turning ideas into production-grade systems. Since 2012, I’ve driven technology and product direction at Microhouse Systems Inc., with a focus on modernizing retail infrastructure so it scales with the market instead of slowing it down.

Current role

Partner & Director of Technology / Product Strategy
I set direction and also write/ship critical-path code

What I’m building / responsible for

Stewardship of two legacy RMS product lines
Oversight of: security, compliance, budgets, vendor relationships, marketing coordination
G3N Retail Stack — a headless retail bus streaming real-time data across POS, DTC, and ERP estates
Staying close to customers and frontline reality: market research + support feedback → product decisions

What I tend to specialize in

Event-driven retail and supply-chain systems
Automated pipelines and production reliability
Cloud-native modernization + infrastructure-as-code
Real-time synchronization of transactions and operational data
Practical AI enablement (domain-tuned, tied to real data + workflows)

Earlier work (selected domains)

Compiler and middleware construction
Manufacturing/supply-chain platforms
Medical image archival and retrieval systems, DSP
High-speed image processing for handwriting recognition
Banking item-processing and high-speed cheque-sorter control
PC–mainframe connectivity tooling and data-dictionary code generation
Hard real-time OS components for industrial control systems (fuel dispensers / control systems)

Outdoors

What you’ll find in the outdoors gallery

Canoe/fishing days
Winter camping setups and trips
Trail camera stills and wildlife moments
Trails and hikes (especially in colder seasons)
The occasional “I brought tools into the woods” adventure

Theme
I’m a cold-weather person: crisp air, crunchy snow, and quiet campsites beat crowds. Big on safe practices and leaving places better than I found them.
