Hi, I'm

Behnam Azimi

A software engineer from Amsterdam.

I build things for the browser and the tools around it. Life comes in three Cs: Miya the cat, code, and the clarinet.

A bit about me

Hey there, I'm Behnam. I've spent a good part of my life behind a screen, probing, investigating, and learning new things. These days I write mostly JavaScript and TypeScript, with simple scripts in Go and Python.

I love reading, I play the clarinet, and Miya keeps me company. I think geographical borders are meaningless. What matters is humanity.

about.ts

export const behnam = {
  role: 'software engineer',
  city: 'Amsterdam',
  lifeIn: ['cat', 'code', 'clarinet'],
  cat: 'Miya',
}

// click a value, then run
export const site = {
  theme: ,
  cat: ,

“Either use AI or get replaced by it. Don't overthink it.”

That's me these days: a proxy-dev. I sit between AI agents and pass their notes along. I read every one, fix the ones that need fixing, and still take the blame.
