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.
