Full-stack developer with 5+ years of experience building scalable web applications.
PakistanWhat I'm looking for
I am a full-stack developer with over 5 years of experience in building scalable web applications. My journey in technology began with a BS in Computer Science from FAST NUCES, where I graduated in 2019. Since then, I have honed my skills in JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, React.js, Symfony, and PHP, delivering performance-driven solutions in both product and service-based environments.
In my current role at Optymyze Tech, I have successfully reduced backend response times by 20% through optimizing Symfony pipelines and migrated a legacy WordPress system to a modern stack using React, TypeScript, and GraphQL. My previous experience at Coeus Solutions GmbH involved re-architecting a legacy monolith into modular services, significantly cutting deployment downtime by 70%. I thrive in fast-paced, remote-first teams and am passionate about creating impactful, business-aligned systems.
