Welcome to SK NEXUS - Do Tech -> Better

Knowledge by Execution

SK NEXUS started as my passion project – passion for sharing knowledge based on execution, based on real experiences.

There’s a severe gap for content relevant to the people around me and I wanted to help fill that need.

Years ago, it started as a simple blog – years later, it’s evolving to cover more.

Join us, as we make space for better knowledge when it comes to tech, career, and business – while having some fun on the way.

The Wandering Pro Discord – Mentorship Space for Builders

Pakistan’s first dedicated community for folks looking to build their Product, Projects, and Portfolios.

The Discord server offers exclusive mentorship, dedicated project support, and a space to collaborate, learn, and succeed in your career journey.

Hosted by Saqib Tahir


Here’s What Building Alone Gets You

Limited
Feedback

Building without experienced feedback can lead to blind spots and slowed progress.

Resources
Overload

Drowning in tutorials, courses, and documentation without knowing what’s actually worth your time.

Creeping
Isolation

Without accountability, it’s easy to lose focus, miss milestones, or even abandon projects.

Analysis
Paralysis

Overwhelmed by choices and information overload, leading to stalled projects and unrealized potential.

Lack of
Guidance

Access to mentorship and resources can be scarce, making it difficult to navigate challenges effectively.

Impostor’s
Shadow

Constant self-doubt about your skills and decisions, wondering if you’re “good enough” to build something meaningful.

Looking for Remote Jobs in Pakistan?

Remote Jobs in Pakistan page image.

Remote jobs are the best way to scale, especially within domains of IT and Digital Services.

And I am sure you know about this already. After the pandemic, remote work has been normalized across many industries. Freelancing is on the rise. And companies and employees alike are open to working across globe, more than ever before.
But the issue becomes this –

Where do you even get a remote job?
