Introduction
About me

Welcome to my personal website. I’m Meysam Lotfi, a seasoned software engineer, entrepreneur, and technology consultant with a passion for digital innovation and a track record of success in the tech industry. I’ve dedicated my life to the pursuit of knowledge, the art of programming, and the creation of digital solutions that make a difference.

Early Life and Education
How my story begins

My journey into the world of technology and mathematics began early. In 2003, I earned my high school diploma with a focus on Mathematics, laying the foundation for my future career in tech. Driven by a thirst for knowledge and a fascination with the power of numbers, I enrolled at Payam Noor University in 2004 to study Applied Mathematics.

During my time at university, I discovered my true calling: programming. While still a student, I began freelancing as a programmer in 2005, honing my skills and gaining practical experience in the field. This early start in the professional world would prove invaluable in shaping my career path.

In 2009, I proudly received my bachelor’s degree in Applied Mathematics. However, my educational journey didn’t stop there. Recognizing the ever-evolving nature of the tech industry, I later pursued a second bachelor’s degree in Software Engineering, which I completed in 2018. Most recently, in 2023, I achieved another significant milestone by earning my Master’s degree in Software Engineering from Tabriz University.

Professional Journey
Things getting more serious

My professional career in software development began in earnest in 2007 when I joined Azarsoft Company in Tabriz as a PHP programmer. For three years, I immersed myself in the world of web development, learning the intricacies of building robust and scalable web applications.

In 2010, I took a significant step forward in my career by joining Global Village Company as a senior software engineer. This role allowed me to expand my skill set and take on more complex challenges in software development. I thrived in this position for three years, contributing to numerous successful projects and further solidifying my expertise in the field.

Entrepreneurial Venture
From SEA to Magnetism Digital Agency

The year 2014 marked a turning point in my career when I decided to channel my passion and expertise into my own venture. I founded Sepidtejarat Eghlim Aras, operating under the corporate name of Ishtarmedia, as a digital agency. This decision was driven by my vision to create innovative digital solutions and my desire to build a team of like-minded professionals who shared my passion for technology.

Under my leadership, Ishtarmedia quickly gained recognition for its cutting-edge digital solutions and client-focused approach. Our success in the domestic market led to an exciting expansion in 2021 when we opened our first foreign office in Istanbul, Turkey. This move not only broadened our horizons but also allowed us to serve a more diverse international clientele.

In 2024, recognizing the need to align our brand with our growing global presence and evolving services, I spearheaded a rebranding initiative. Ishtarmedia was transformed into Magnetism Digital Agency, reflecting our position as a multinational digital solutions company. This rebranding represented not just a change in name, but a renewed commitment to attracting and delivering world-class digital solutions to clients across the globe.

Today, as the leader of Magnetism Digital Agency, I continue to drive innovation and excellence in the digital space. Our team of talented professionals works tirelessly to deliver cutting-edge solutions in web development, mobile applications, digital marketing, and more. We pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve in the fast-paced world of technology, always seeking new ways to add value to our clients’ businesses.

Consulting and Knowledge Sharing
My passion in the profession

Beyond my role at Magnetism Digital Agency, I’m deeply committed to sharing my knowledge and experiences with others in the tech community. I offer consultancy services on IT-related issues to individuals and businesses, helping them navigate the complex landscape of modern technology.

My approach to consulting is rooted in my belief that technology should be accessible and understandable to all. Whether I’m advising a startup on their tech stack or helping an established company optimize their digital strategy, I strive to provide clear, actionable insights that drive real results.

I’m always eager to engage with fellow professionals, aspiring developers, and anyone with a passion for technology. I believe that by sharing our knowledge and experiences, we can collectively push the boundaries of what’s possible in the digital realm.
