ISKARIA
Two people who met in Korea and started arguing about how to sell things well.
Ibrahim and Hassan met during a semester exchange in Korea — both ended up at POSTECH — and hit it off immediately. What started as long days spent talking about books, philosophy, technology, and fitness turned into something closer to a working partnership: it was Hassan who pulled Ibrahim into sales and marketing in the first place, showing him what's genuinely compelling about the craft of selling something well.
That's the actual split behind Iskaria — Hassan's instinct for the sell, Ibrahim's instinct for the system underneath it — rather than two people who met at a networking event and decided to start an agency.
Who's actually doing the work.
Ibrahim Kaif
AI & software engineer, IIT Madras. Founding AI engineer at Wyre AI, building document-intelligence pipelines with vision-language models; research work in computer vision and foundation models during a POSTECH exchange; currently technical advisor to a fintech startup building tax infrastructure. Leads Iskaria's digital and operational build-out — the sites, the tooling, the technical audits.
Hassan Istiqlal
Materials engineering background (PIEAS) and a Master's in Chemical Engineering from POSTECH. Leads Iskaria's marketing and sales strategy — Meta and Google campaign execution, GBP, funnel and pricing strategy — informed by a research-trained, data-first approach rather than creative guesswork.
"Engineers and researchers who do growth like a systems problem."
We take on a small number of clients at a time, intentionally — proper marketing requires full attention, and we can't do that for thirty accounts.
