Seasoned Software Development Architect and team lead specializing in web and mobile apps.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Software Development Architect and team lead with over 10 years of experience building scalable web and mobile applications using Angular, Ionic and Vue.js. I lead cross-functional teams, mentor developers, and drive technical strategy to deliver production-grade solutions.
At Contour Software I headed a team of seven, improved sprint velocity by 30%, and architected multiple enterprise apps adopted across agriculture and logistics sectors. I also led a migration to Angular 15 that reduced load times by 40% and shortened release cycles significantly.
Previously I built cross-platform apps at TRG Tech supporting tens of thousands of users, mentored junior developers, and delivered backend improvements using C#, ASP.NET and MS SQL. I have strong DevOps and CI/CD experience and use tools like Azure, Git and JIRA to streamline delivery.
I am results-driven, focused on technical innovation and operational efficiency, and proud of measurable impacts such as 98% client satisfaction post-launch and reductions in inventory processing and backend response times.
