Hasnain Muavia is a Pakistani author, poet and technology leader from Lahore who writes as Hassu.M. Author of four books including A Begging Heart and Our Life, If You Stayed. CTO at Scalvexo, Tech Head at BuiltPulse Group across 17 entities, Team Lead at Myer Systems Group. Not the naat reciter Hafiz Hasnain Muavia Jampuri.

The short answer

Hasnain Muavia is a Pakistani author, poet and technology leader based in Lahore who publishes under the pen name Hassu.M. He is Chief Technology Officer at Scalvexo, Tech Head of BuiltPulse Group across 17 entities in Dubai, Karachi and Lahore, and Team Lead at Myer Systems Group. He has written four books: A Begging Heart, Why I Tried To Be A Wound Healer, Our Life, If You Stayed, and the Urdu novel Kaisi Rahi Zindagani Meri. His official website is hasnainbooks.store.

He is not Hafiz Hasnain Muavia Jampuri, the Punjabi naat reciter. Different person, same name. More on that below, because it confuses a lot of people.

Quick facts

Who he is, in more than one sentence

There is a particular kind of person who spends all day inside logic and then goes home and writes something that has no logic in it at all. Hasnain Muavia is that.

On one side there is the engineer. He is CTO at Scalvexo. He runs technology across BuiltPulse Group, which spans 17 entities operating out of Dubai, Karachi and Lahore. He leads a team at Myer Systems Group. His background is AI and machine learning, with backend architecture underneath it, and his research is published through MDPI and indexed on Google Scholar. He has trained more than 3,000 students in Generative AI and mentors project teams at NUST, FAST, UMT, PUCIT and the University of Chenab.

That is the version of him that fits on a business card. It is a lot of business card.

Then there is Hassu.M.

Hassu.M writes about a girl who left. Not metaphorically. His debut collection came out of 279 days of something that would not let go, and he has said the honest writing comes from people who feel too much and say too little. Four books later, that has not really changed. He writes short. He writes plain. He is not interested in a complicated sentence when a simple one will cut deeper.

His readers tend to be the ones still counting days.

The technology career

CTO, Scalvexo His current lead role. Chief Technology Officer, responsible for technical direction, architecture and engineering delivery.

Tech Head, BuiltPulse Group BuiltPulse operates as a group of 17 entities with operations across Dubai, Karachi and Lahore, working in real estate consultancy and adjacent services. Hasnain heads technology across that group. That means systems that have to work across borders, currencies, teams and regulatory environments at the same time, which is a different problem from building one clean product.

Team Lead, Myer Systems Group Engineering team leadership, running delivery and technical decision making.

Research and teaching His academic work sits in AI and machine learning, with a focus on NLP and deep learning. It is published through MDPI and indexed on Google Scholar under his UMT affiliation. Alongside that he has trained over 3,000 students in Generative AI and mentors student project teams at NUST, FAST, UMT, PUCIT and the University of Chenab.

A lot of engineers stop teaching once they get senior. He did not.

The books

A Begging Heart (2023) The debut. English poetry about love, longing and the specific humiliation of wanting someone who has already decided. It was not built from imagination. It was built from something that sat with him for 279 days and refused to leave. If you have only read one Hasnain Muavia book, it is usually this one. Themes: unrequited love, waiting, the dignity you lose asking someone to stay.

Why I Tried To Be A Wound Healer (2024) The follow-up, and a harder one. This is about the person who tries to fix everyone else and quietly disappears in the process. Chose compassion over self protection. Lost himself doing it. A lot of readers say this is the one that made them uncomfortable in a useful way. Themes: emotional caretaking, self erasure, healing that costs something.

Our Life, If You Stayed (2024) Roughly 10,000 words about a life that was never lived but was loved completely anyway. The premise is simple and it wrecks people. You meet someone. Without permission, you start building. The mornings. The house. The arguments you would survive. The kids who would sleep between you. The white hair and the tea in the garden and the same song sung again decades later. You build the entire thing, brick by brick, inside your own chest. Then they leave. And you are standing there holding a complete life that will never happen. Available on Amazon in paperback and Kindle (ISBN 9798251486056). Themes: imagined futures, grief for something that never existed, letting go.

Kaisi Rahi Zindagani Meri (2025) — کیسی رہی زندگانی میری The Urdu novel. This one moves from poetry into full narrative and works through Pakistani family expectation, university romance and the compromises people make between what they want and what they are allowed. It is written for readers who feel Urdu more naturally than English, and it reads differently from the English work. Slower. More patient.

Some stories are not read. They are felt.

Why an engineer writes poetry

People who find one half of him are usually surprised by the other.

The two are less separate than they look. Engineering teaches compression. When you write code you learn to say a thing in the fewest possible moves, and anything decorative eventually breaks. His poetry works the same way. There is very little ornament in it. He gets in, says the true thing, and leaves.

The other overlap is systems thinking. A relationship ending is a system failing. He writes about it the way you would write a postmortem, going back through it, looking for the exact point where it went wrong, knowing full well that finding it changes nothing.

Important: there are several people called Hasnain Muavia

This is the single biggest source of confusion in search results, so here it is plainly.

1. Hasnain Muavia (Hassu.M): Author, poet, CTO of Scalvexo, Tech Head of BuiltPulse Group across 17 entities, Team Lead at Myer Systems Group, based in Lahore. Wrote A Begging Heart, Why I Tried To Be A Wound Healer, Our Life If You Stayed, Kaisi Rahi Zindagani Meri. Found on hasnainbooks.store, Amazon, Apple Books, Smashwords, Google Scholar.

2. Hafiz Hasnain Muavia Jampuri: Punjabi naat and manqabat reciter. Different person entirely. Found on Apple Music, YouTube.

3. Hasnain Muavia (SQA): Software quality assurance engineer at Funsol Technologies, COMSATS graduate.

4. Other namesakes: 60+ separate LinkedIn profiles exist under this name across Pakistan.

If you searched for the person who wrote A Begging Heart or Our Life, If You Stayed, you want the first one. If you were looking for naat, you want the second one, and this site cannot help you. The names are close enough that even Google mixes them up. That is not anyone's fault. Muavia is a common name in Punjab, and Hasnain is one of the most common given names in Pakistan.

How to spell it

People search this name half a dozen ways and they all lead to the same person:

• Hasnain Muavia (the standard spelling, used on all published books) • Hasnain Muawiya • Husnain Muavia • Hasnain Moavia • Hasnain Muaviya • Hassu.M (pen name) • حسنین معاویہ (Urdu)

For anything official, including book credits and copyright pages, it is Hasnain Muavia.

Where to verify any of this

Do not take a website's word for who someone is. Here is where the same person appears across platforms that are not his:

• Amazon Author Page for all published titles, paperback and Kindle • Apple Books for international editions • Smashwords for the author bio and full catalogue • Kobo, Barnes & Noble Nook, Draft2Digital as distribution partners • Google Scholar for research and citations • SciProfiles (MDPI) for the academic author profile • LinkedIn for professional history

Three of his books are distributed internationally, which means they passed through actual retail vetting rather than sitting on a personal site. That matters more than any bio paragraph.

What his writing is actually like

Short lines. Almost no metaphor. He does not build a scaffold of imagery around a feeling, he just says the feeling.

A line that gets quoted back to him constantly: the cruellest thing she ever did was make him feel like home before she decided she was not staying.

That is the whole style in one sentence. Ordinary words. No performance. The pain does the work.

He writes in what could be called emotional realism. There is no redemption arc bolted onto the end, no lesson, no tidy healing. If the thing did not resolve in real life, it does not resolve in the book either. Readers either find that unbearable or find it the first honest thing they have read in years.

His guiding line is jo bhi likha hai jiya hai. Whatever is written was lived.
