Co-founder & Lead Engineer
Hassan Jamal.
Full-Stack Architect · Austin LLC · Engineering from Karachi
I built WordPress sites for six years before I got tired of watching clients pay $3,000 a month in plugin fees for sites that loaded in four seconds. I co-founded PandaCodeGen in February 2026 with Imran Raza Ladhani to do it differently. We run an Austin LLC with engineering from Karachi. One recent client was paying $3,200/month on Shopify Plus with a PageSpeed score of 31. We migrated them to custom code. Same features. Zero app fees. PageSpeed jumped from 31 to 92.

"I was not sure at first. Can a custom website really be built for $300 with no costs? Hassan showed me it can be done. They worked with me to make a website that I could afford. No costs or extra fees. PandaCodeGen and Hassan are good at what they do."
