Abdul Wajid
@abdulwajid
Software Engineer building AI-powered backend systems, APIs, SaaS products, and eCommerce platforms.
What I'm looking for
I build backend systems, eCommerce platforms, APIs, integrations, and production-ready web applications. Most of my professional work has been around Magento/Adobe Commerce, Laravel, Vue.js, MySQL, PostgreSQL, checkout customizations, Magento upgrades, third-party APIs, and production debugging.
My current focus is applied AI engineering: Python, FastAPI, LLM APIs, RAG, embeddings, structured outputs, prompt workflows, backend AI systems, SaaS architecture, and API-driven automation. I do not position myself as a fake AI expert; I connect AI features to the backend engineering habits I already use in production work.
I care about clean APIs, validated outputs, reliable error handling, debugging, and deployment details. I am based in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan and open to remote roles, freelance projects, contract work, and long-term client support.
