Raheel Butt
@buttraheel6
Associate Architect at Pikes Soft building secure payment and real-time systems, including a platform that processed $100K+ in transactions.
What I'm looking for
At Pikes Soft, I lead architecture and technical direction across platform work, from service design and AWS infrastructure to delivery pipelines. I work on payment and real-time systems built with Node.js, NestJS, React, and AWS.
On the Digital Gifting Platform, I led a cross-functional team and worked as a full-stack developer. I architected the transaction APIs and database schema, integrated Stripe and a banking-as-a-service provider, and helped process $100K+ in transactions.
As Technical Lead at Pikes Soft, I led delivery of a high-stakes live application within a six-month deadline. AWS SNS-based logging and alerting reduced monthly error ratios from 30% to 3–5%, while asynchronous SQS and Lambda services sustained 99.9% uptime for payment flows.
I also build tools and workflows that make engineering delivery safer and more repeatable, including CI/CD and Git automation. My current projects include a Claude Code ticket-to-release plugin and AWS infrastructure automation; I’m open to remote Senior or Lead Backend, Full-Stack, and AI Engineering opportunities.
