From coding to public service: How Habibulloh Ismoilov is building an IT ecosystem in Navoi

Born on April 22, 2004, in Khatirchi district of Navoi region, Habibulloh Ismoilov has emerged as one of the country’s most active young IT professionals, standing out among his peers for both his practical achievements and his early leadership roles.

Ismoilov’s background is rooted in applied technology rather than theory. Over the past five years, he has worked across software development, digital marketing, and project management, contributing to more than 200 projects and launching several digital products of his own. His portfolio includes full-stack development, artificial intelligence tools, and Telegram-based digital solutions used by businesses and organizations.

In 2023, at the age of 19, Ismoilov was appointed IT adviser to the governor of Khatirchi district. The position gave him firsthand insight into how digital tools can improve local governance, and where the lack of qualified specialists remains a major obstacle. “You can’t digitalize processes if there are no specialists on the ground,” he says. “Education has to be practical, local, and market-oriented.”

This approach became the foundation of Coding Tech, a company Ismoilov founded in 2024. Today, Coding Tech operates both as a software development firm and as an IT training center focused on preparing young people for real work in the tech sector. The company employs nearly 20 developers and designers, delivers paid software solutions for businesses, and reinvests its commercial experience into education.

Unlike many short-term IT courses, Coding Tech’s programs are built around applied skills. Students learn modern programming languages, web development, artificial intelligence tools, and real project workflows. Training goes beyond coding to include how products are tested, launched, and maintained in a commercial environment.

The team emphasizes small groups, direct mentorship, and alignment with labor market needs – an approach shaped by Ismoilov’s own experience in international online programs and hands-on projects. Graduates are expected to leave with practical, job-ready skills rather than just certificates.

Alongside his entrepreneurial and public-sector activities, Ismoilov is currently studying finance and financial technologies at Nordic International University, further strengthening his understanding of the intersection between technology and the economy.

“Our goal is simple,” he says. “We want young people in the regions to have the same practical IT opportunities as those in major cities, and to be ready for real jobs, not just exams.”
